If I copy and paste a column of numbers that include commas (e.g. $3,000,000,000), WORKS will split up the number in different colunms. Try it. How do I adjust WORKS spreadsheet to ignore commas as delimiters?

Make sure source works. and destination s.has cells selected as numbers. I assume you know how to do it. But here it is in case:
Select column. Right click it and go to format cells.Stay in number tab and select number.
It should work fine.

(1) Filter out the commas. If you understand grep or regular expressions it's a piece of cake. If you don't, it may still be possible with regular search-and-replace. It depends on the file format.

(2) Use a macro to reassemble the split columns back into numbers in the spreadsheet. Again, this may be simple or not, depending on the other data in the file.

Just don't put the commas.
