1. Mark the column you like to have formarted in currency style.
2. Right click on the marked columns and click on Numberformat (Zahlenformat …)
3. Set category (Kategorie) to Currency (Währung)
4. Set format (Format) to “USD $ Englisch (USA)”
5. Click ok

May be the menu entries have different names, i have only a german version here.
