No, I was looking simply for centering. If the numbers are the roughly the
same size, it doesn't necessarily matter if all the decimal points and/or
commas don't line up (depending on one's taste, of course). In this case, I
had no decimal points, just comma separators, and all the numbers were the
same width. I simply wanted them with commas, and centered.

But the decimal points don't align.
I had thought that was what you were complaining about.

No, that's not the problem I see.

When I talk about comma format, I'm talking about what I get when I click
on
the comma on the formatting toolbar. I believe that results in Accounting
format.

FSt1 has made a good suggestion. If I use Number format and click the
"Use
1000 separator (,)", that has the same result as to the comma, but does
not
disallow centering. It's not quite as easy as just clicking the comma on
the
toolbar, but it gets the result I want.

Thanks for your suggestion.

I don't think the problem is the comma, it is proportional fonts when
dealing with numbers, and trying to centre.

You could give the appearance of centred, by formatting the cells as
Right
(indent) 2
Depending upon the width of your column, you might have to alter the
indent
value.

As far as I can tell, the "comma" format does not allow a number to be
centered horizontally in a cell. Is there a way to override this?

Thanks.
