Select Format Cells, click on Number in the Category list, set Decimal
Places to 0 and click on the first item in the Negative Numbers list (which should be -1,234). Rick |

hi, Scott !
The solution offered does not work for negative numbers. Can you please help? with Joco's proposal you will see *extra* commas if number is less than 9 digits for negative numbers try with the following custom number format: [<-9999999]-##\,##\,##\,##0;[<-99999]-##\,##\,##0;#,##0 [however] you won't be able to mix positive/negative number usin only one format :-( you might want to give a try an extra cell/column and ws-functions [i.e.] assuming the number in 'A1': =text(a1,rept("##\,",match(len(abs(a1)),{3;4;6;8})-1)&"##0") hth, hector. try with the following custom number format: [9999999]##\,##\,##\,##0;[99999]##\,##\,##0;#,##0 |
