Default Why does Excel auto-divide numerical inputs by 100?


For some reason, Excel started dividing all my integer inputs by 100? Does
anyone know why this is happening?

Default Why does Excel auto-divide numerical inputs by 100?

Go to the Tools menu, choose Options, then the Edit tab. There,
uncheck the "Fixed Decimal" setting. This setting is useful if you
want to enter a large number of dollars and cents values but don't
want to type the decimal point.

Cordially,
