DECIMAL PLACES DISPLAYED
I'm having a problem with how my decimal places are displayed in the
"Formula Bar". I have the number of decimal places set to three for all of the cells in my spreadsheet, but in certain instances, only one or two places are all thats being displayed in the Formula Bar. An example would be 0.500 (in the cell), but 0.5 is displayed in the Formula Bar. Can someone please head me in the right direction? Thanks, Tom T. |

The formula bar doesn't append zeros to the end of a value. Since 0.5
defines the value stored in the cell, that is what it displays. It doesn't observe how you have formatted the cell. if the number were entered as 3.12345 it would appear in the cell as 3.123 but the formula bar would show you what is actually stored in the cell: 3.12345 -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Tom" wrote in message om...
