Default regional settings

I have a column of numbers as 2.119.939,50 EUR
i need to remove the EUR and sum the resultant numbers. So i use the rigtht
and len minus 4 formula and get the expected result (without the EUR). Then
when i try to add these up i get zero.

The only way around this is to copy and paste values only, then use the text
to columns function, then it works.

If anyone knows a more appropriate method i will be very grateful to hear, i
have set my regional settings to German.

with kind regards
