There may be a better way, but one way would be to use this formula:

=VALUE(TEXT(A2,"0.000E+00"))

The text function forces XL to use 4 significant digits and then because its
text, the rest of the value is forgotten. The text is then converted back to
a number.

I am working with a series of complex equations. I need them to carry a
constant 4 significant figures throughout the entire spread sheet until it is
rounded at the end. My issue is that I cannot get them all to show.

IE:
1) 0.0389
2) 0.2345
These are two different values that hold two different significant figures.
How do I get excel to show all the sig figs since the rounding function
seems to be limited.
Thanks for all the help!

P.s. I dont know a lot about macros....
