excel 2007 how to turn off the fixed decimal thing
hey - thanks but it's off so perhaps i asked the wrong question - i can't
input a numeric value with dot00, example - 175.00 or 1830.00 as when I do it reads 175 and 1830 - sorry - new to excel also what is it about iterating references cos I created a formula but it seems I circled back - i have removed the formula but don't understand what excel does with it and the crux of the problem thanks a mil -- Edge "Edge" wrote: -- Edge |

Excel will not display terminating decimal 0s unless you set the format to
do so. Select the cell(s) in question Right clickFormat CellsNumber tabNumberset to 2 decimal placesOK As for your formula problem...it sounds like you created a circular reference. A circular reference is usually a formula that refers to the formula itself. For example: You wan to sum cells in column A and you enter this formula in cell A1: =SUM(A:A) That creates a circular reference because the formula is in cell A1 and the formula =SUM(A:A) includes a reference to cell A1. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Edge" wrote in message ... hey - thanks but it's off so perhaps i asked the wrong question - i can't input a numeric value with dot00, example - 175.00 or 1830.00 as when I do it reads 175 and 1830 - sorry - new to excel also what is it about iterating references cos I created a formula but it seems I circled back - i have removed the formula but don't understand what excel does with it and the crux of the problem thanks a mil -- Edge "Edge" wrote: -- Edge |
