Protected Worksheet, Cell Formatting Lost on Double Click?
Hi All,
I have a worksheet with a cell on it which is formatted as a %. If I protect the sheet and single click the cell to enter a new value, I type 5 and 5.00% is entered, if I double click the cell to enter a new value and I type 5, 500.00% appears, it's like it loses its formatting. I wouldn't double click the cell but I have put together an entry form for my dad and his colleagues and some of them are stuck in their ways to double click the cells! Any ideas how I can overcome this? Thanks, |

If you have double clicked, you must enter the decimal equivalent of the
percent.or add the percent sign: either .05 or 5% Robert Flanagan http://www.add-ins.com Productivity add-ins and downloadable books on VB macros for Excel "Louise" wrote in message ...
