I need a cell to format to 3 decimal points max, but I dont want the .000 if
the number is whole.
For example, I need a cell with 33.8140226 to read as 33.814, but if the
cell is 33, I want it to be 33, not 33.000
If I use general format, I can get the 33.814, but then I get 33.000 when I
use a whole number.

Any help would be appreciated.
