As Ron pointed out, there is no sigfig format, but if you will be
handling a lot of numbers, you may prefer a formula to round to
specified number of figures

to the Round function that rounds to a specified number of decimal places.

I had a search as I was sure that this would have been answered, but didn't
really find what I needed.

How can I display 3,456 as 3,460 (so to 3 significant digits) without
changing the value of the cell (as would happen with the round function).

Thanks in advance.
