numbers convert to text??
Arh! Excel '07 on WinXP
Just found this one yesterday on 2 machines. Spreadsheet created in Excel XP. Obne cell formatted as percentage with 2 decimal places. Attempt to enter 12.24%, hiowever as soon as teh period is entered, the "12" becomes "twelve" and cell will not acept the remaining digits-- the "24" following the period. I checked the formatting-- still set to percentage with 2 decimal places. Any ideas on this one? Thanks in advance fro your help! |
