How to add currency symbol to a cell value
 

Is there any possibility to add currency symbol to cell values by using
conditional format from built-in currency symbols based on selected currency
from combo dropdown box in my excel workbook.

or is there any other solution.

Advanced Thanks,

Why not just format the cells as currency? - Format | Cells | Number
tab | Currency, and choose the number of decimal places and the symbol
to be used.

How to add currency symbol to a cell value
 

I mean to say, I wanted to use conditional format for a cell which is based
on a cell A1.

In other wards in my workbook cell B1 consists value 100 and there is a
combobox (Formcontrol) which is linked to cell A1. Dropdown consists of
currencies list like USD,CNY,GBP,HKD, UNDEFINED(No symbol). If I select "CNY"
from dropdown then "CNY" will store at cell A1.

1. Finally I wanted to display cell B1 value with prifix of cell A1 value
i.e., B1 should display as CNY 100.

2. If I select "GBP" then B1 should display as GBP 100.
3. If I select "HKD" then B1 should display as HKD 100.
4. If I select "UNDEFINED" then B1 should display simplay as 100 (without
symbol).

HI Vinod,

I'm not sure if you're still monitoring your posting. I have a similar
situation which may work for yours as well. The way I setup is I put
the currency symbols in column A from A1 to A10 and the numbers in
column B. I also used Data-Validation on column A, so the user is
forced to select 5 types of currency symbols (CAD, USD, EUR, GBP and
Unassigned). The macro is done through a worksheet change event. Let
me know if this works for you.
