How to put the exponent constant in representation of a number in MS
excel? We can move the decimal point.
E.g. i want to represent 101325 as 1.01e5. similarly 1013250 as
10.13e5. E5 should be constant.

I tried that, but it does not give correct results. You can also try and
let me know.

Thanks

If A1 contains the value then:

=A1/100000 & "e5"

seems to work

Nice reply from Gary''s Student. It works. But then we have to have
another cell for that. It is not formatting.

Can't be done with formatting as E will always display 1 digit.

This ain't foirmatting either, but maybe it's okay

'-----------------------------------------------------------------
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
'-----------------------------------------------------------------
Const WS_RANGE As String = "A1"

On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
With Target
.Value = Format(.Value / 100000, "0.00") & "E5"
.NumberFormat = "@"
End With
End If

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.
