Juat type an apostrophe (single quote ) before your digits.

You could format the cell as a Number with the correct no of Decimal Places

So what number of decimal places do you think will display 18 significant
figures? Or are you using some new version of Excel which doesn't have the limit of 15 significant figures? -- David Biddulph "Trev B" wrote in message ...
