When I enter a number in a cell, Excel somehow divides the number by
100 ie. entering 1234 gets a value of 12.34 in the cell. What have I done wrong. enenko |

Nothing wrong, but there is a setting for the the current Workbook (and it
affects all open ones as well) Tools - Options - Edit tab Fixed Decimal - uncheck the box This is only useful if you have a lot of fixed decimal data to enter Which can be done without having to enter the . Best to only use it when absolutley necessary, and turn it off afterwards.

ToolsOptionsEdit.
Uncheck "Fixed Decimal Places" Handy feature if you are an Accountant but otherwise not too handy.
