Importing multiple text files with different decimal separators (dot vs comma from English vs European speakers)

It seems that, sometimes, JMP 18 struggles to import files with different regional settings. This is a problem for first-time users who need to load multiple text files from different lab machines (JSL should not be the only answer).

 

For example, if I have Windows and JMP in English, decimal separators can be changed from default to European (e.g., 3,14 instead of 3.14).

 

With that option activated, I still cannot load the files attached recognizing the columns as numeric.

 

I wonder why that is the case.

In addition, can we include the separator option within the import settings (not JMP preferences)? There was suggested already but it seems on hold (see here).
