hi
your cell is formatted to general.
so.
right click the cell(s) that you want formated to 2 decimals
from the popup, select format cells.
from the format dialog, select the number tab.
from the catagory list, select number
to the right will be a spin button where you can select the number of
decimal places you want. default is 2.
when done, click the ok button.

regards
