I have unchecked the system separators but still showing the separators in the sheet. How do i remove separators from existing sheet ?
Are the cells numbers or strings? You should see if you edit a cell.
Navigate to Control Panel-->Clock, Region and Language-->Region and Language--> Then go to Formats Tab and select the country that you want to use format style. Also click additional setting to format numbers.

Your OS is having which regional settings? And are they active in Excel (should be in opposition to http:#a41387015)?
The number you have provided "1,000." is in-fact 1000 why do you want to change it to 1.
If you want to change it to 1 anyway then please use a formula to do so such as following.
=LEFT(D2,SEARCH("0",D2)-1)
or
=SUBSTITUTE(D2,".",",")/10 00

1,000 in German (and other) format is the same as US 1.000 - the value 1 with 3 decimals.
then why it has a "." after zeros?
Open your eyes and see - the number is "1,000", the dot you spot is part of the sentence.

Formulas are in the language of the Excel application installation, and you can't change that. If you load a german workbook into a UK Excel, all formulas should be seen as translated.
