    Hi @Joyzhao-MSFT

    I changed the language settings of the text box to de-DE and it helps without having to do any changes in the expression.

    Hi @Nimisha Vernekar ,
    As you are asking for dot(.) as 1000 separator, I am assuming that you do not have decimal points in number.

    Now, if your filed is SalesAmount 

    =Replace(Format(Fields!SalesAmount.Value, "#,###0"),",",".")

    And if you have decimals ( but now you will not able to distinguish separator and decimal point) 

    =Replace(Format(Fields!SalesAmount.Value, "#,###0.00"),",",".")

    Only issue with the approach would be, when you export to excel not this column will treated as text.
    Best Regards,
    Joy
