You can use Tools | Options | Calculation tab and then click on
Precision as displayed - when you click OK Excel will warn you that
you are about to change values, and that this is not reversible.

Hope this helps.

Can someone please help me figure out how to change a number that has
multiple declimal places (example 54.123456) to only 2 places (example
54.12). *When I format the number to 2 decimals, it appears correct, however,
when I "click" on the number, it still shows the multiple decimals. *I need
the number to only show 2 decimal places at all times. *Any suggestions would
be greatly appreciated!
