Same column Percent and Currency
 

Hello I have a column that contains numbers thatr represent both
percent and currency. Presently I formatted the column as number - general
Example 0.15 and 68 - 0.15 should read 15.00% and 68 should read
$68.00. Is there a formula so that I can format the number as percent or as
currency in the same column thanks

Same column Percent and Currency
 

Assuming currency is greater or equal to 1 and percent is between .01 and
..99, sort your data by this column of numbers, so that all percent values are
grouped together and all currency values are grouped together and then apply
the correct formatting to each group.

You can use a custom format for the column, so that you *instantly* display
your desired format, where sorting is *unnecessary*.

[<1]0.00%;$#,##0.00

I tried the formula below and when I enter a percent value such as 12. I get
12.00% and that's fine, however when I enter a dollar value let's say 130.00
the answer is $1.30 what I'm I doing wrong thanks

You should *not* be entering 12. to display 12.00%
You should be using .12

SO ... That tells me that you have "Fixed Decimals" enabled.

Go to:
<Tools <Options <Edit tab,
And *UNCHECK*
"Fixed Decimals"
