Default format cell, number category

Hi,

Please provide more details - you have a whole spreadsheet filled with
general formatted numbers and they suddenly change to currency? This occurs
as you type into a cell?

When you put your cursor in a blank cell and choose Format, Cells, Number
tab the active category is General? Then if you type 12 into that cell it
changes to $12.00?

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Cheers,

I have a spread sheet filled with general formated numbers. Suddenly after I
open the file all the general number changed to currency, and if I click on a
blank cell the active category is currency not general.
