How to change VARCHAR 120,34 to NUMBER

2886698Jun 2 2015 — edited Jun 2 2015

I have a flatfile that has numerous numerical columns e.g "12,000", "23", "234,65" some columns come over as string and some as numeric so i have decided to bring them all over as string then once in oracle transform to number, how can this be achieved i have tried to_number but nothing is being loaded into the number column target, what would the correct syntax be for this to happen?

VARCHAR to NUMBER column.
