Default Make Excel know 1M is 1,000,000

If you want it to change in the cell, I believe you would need to write code
that would parse out the entry and do the appropriate multiplication using
the change event.

How can I make excel know that when I type 1M in a cell the number
1,000,000 should appear in that cell (2M will appear as 2,000,000
etc)?


Thanks,

Thanks. But is there a way to make a rule so I won't have to enter all
manually.
For example, excel should know that 1.2m means 1200000 and 3.873m is
3873000...
