Maybe that is not possible with numbers? To say in a format something like "my numbers have comma as decimal separator and no thousands separators" or "my numbers are point separated and have comma as thousands separator"
Would stripping out the thousand separator, and leaving in the decimal separator work?
SELECT replace('9,000.34',',','')::numeric;
replace
---------
9000.34If so, then (conceptually) does this work?SELECT replace(
replace(my_numeric_string, user_thousand_sep, ''),
user_decimal_sep, system_decimal_sep
)::numeric
Or maybe I'm missing something about this!
