whole numbers showing as a decimal
I am not sure why, but everytime I enter a whole number such a 2 it show up
as 0.02 I have tried to format the cells in every which way possible. I have removed all of the decimals and then is just shows a 0. I have changed it from text to number and back again. The only way to make 2 show as 2 is for me to type in 2.0 or 2. , why is this happening? Better yet, how do I fix it? -- Lisa M. |
