Not having a complete statement of the problem in the body is indeed
confusing. Anyway I do see question without truncation on the
subject line. You have to fix the problem yourself by formatting
the cell. Select the cell, or preferably and entire column so you
have only one format and then use Format, cells, number
and make an appropriate choice with two decimal digits. You can
use the format buttons on your toolbars with the comma and the
increase/decrease decimal places.

format, cells, number
choose number of decimal places
choose whether you want a comma (may be a different char if not US/Canada)
choose the format such as red negative numbers with minus or in parens.

More choices under accounting.

You also have the toolbar formatting buttons.

You might also look at any choice you've made under
format, cells, custom -- to see how it was actually done

This is rather basic stuff so if that is not clear I would suggest you look
at a couple of tutorials.

hi,
it would be better if you put your question in the body of your post and not
in the subject. your question is truncated so i am not sure exactly what your
question is.
