Excel devides every number by 100
 

Even when I open a brand new file. I input a number (ie 5) and get 0.05 back.
I have tried doing everything in cell format etc.. anyone have an idea? it is
very annoying and adding loads of work to my project.

thanks

G'day,

In Tools\Options\Edit turn off Fixed decimal
If that doesn't help, I don't know.

Cheers,
Julian
