Actually, the back slash in front of the $ sign isn't needed...

=TEXT(A1,"$0.0,,\M")

A little bit more compact (and no worries about double quotes)...

=TEXT(A1,"\$0.0,,\M")

BE CAREFUL of the number and location of the double quotes!!

I would like to format 1000000 (1 million) using the Text Function into
$1M.
It works for K:
a1=1000
=TEXT(D15,"$#,###,k") Works fine
but
when a1=1000000
and I replace the K with an M, I get a #value error
I would like my end result to look like: $1M

It was successful just using the Formatcellscustom.
THANKS!
