How to eliminate 0's
Hi all,
I have a bunch of data with a price as TEXT and I know there is a way of eliminating the 0's but I cant remeber teh formula. An example would be: Data as is now want it to be 00000000665000 which is equal to 66.500 00000000665000=66.500 Anyone knows how to eliminate the zeros and put the period to a place I want to be. Thanks |
