Default Convert currency to general

Format to general to remove the currency sign.

Second part I don't understand........remove the , and . but retain the
decimal places.

If you delete the . there are no decimal places.

Try this...........................

Enter 100 in an empty cell.

Copy that cell.

Select the range to change and Paste SpecialMultiplyOKEsc.

Returns 148067

Hi,

I was wondering is there any way to convert currency to a general format (or
text).
I need to export information from my AP application to my bank. However,
the query comes out of the AP application as a currency field, and the bank
wants it as text.

1e.
$1,480.67 needs to have the $ , and . stripped out (while retaining the
decimal places) so the bank receives it as 148067

Any help is appreciated.
