formatting - aligning decimal points
Does anyone know the best/most efficient way to customize the number formats
such that you can align the decimal point in a series of numbers in a column where some numbers use a currency sign and some do not while using a non-fixed-width font? Thanks! |

An underscore followed by a character creates a space the width of that
character. _$ or Some combinations of ??.?? will align decimal points. -- Jim Cone San Francisco, USA http://www.realezsites.com/bus/primitivesoftware "Emily" wrote in message Does anyone know the best/most efficient way to customize the number formats such that you can align the decimal point in a series of numbers in a column where some numbers use a currency sign and some do not while using a non-fixed-width font?

Thanks, Jim, for your reply (and happy holidays!). I think that i am not
familiar enough with the combination of characters to do this right as I gave it a try and I wasn't successful.
