Hi,

I'm from Belgium and the local decimal separator is a comma (,). So, in
Windows, the comma is configured as the decimal separator.

This is an issue when exporting values from e.g. the 'Conversations' dialog, as
decimal values are split into two columns...

e.g.
Address A,Port A,Address B,Port B,Packets,Bytes,Packets A->B,Bytes A->B,Packets
A<-B,Bytes A<-B,Rel Start,Duration,bps A->B,bps A<-B
172.16.4.203,23273,192.168.97.7,12222,566,153473,0,0,566,153473,0.035641000,8,9067,N/A,137849,87

Changing my Windows "Regional Options" helped, but I still want to use the
comma as decimal separator...

Using " helps, e.g.:
"Address A","Port A","Address B","Port B","Packets","Bytes","Packets
A->B","Bytes A->B","Packets A<-B","Bytes A<-B","Rel Start","Duration","bps
A->B","bps A<-B"
"172.16.4.203","23273","192.168.97.7","12222","566","153473","0","0","566","153473","0.035641000","8,9067","N/A","137849,87"
