It's a known problem in GSpiceUI
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1576729&group_id=145635&atid=762570

You can set the decimal delimiter in the shell before invoking GSpiceUI:
  export LC_NUMERIC=C

or apply the patch from the SF tracker

You're welcome

BTW: It's much easier to provide some help if there are basic 
informations about the used versions and environment like:
  * programm version
  * distribution or used OS
  * the language you're using
  * ...
