Default Excel 2000 - Format Cell - Custom

Using Excel 2000 SP3. I would appreciate help to format columns of cells with
wholes numbers entered as 987654321 and display them as $9,876,543.21. In
other words adding the $ sign, thousands seperator and most importantly
moving the decimal point 2 places to the LEFT. Can anyone show me the correct
customisation format please?

Hi Banker,

One way is to divide all your data by 100, by putting 100
in a blank cell, copy it, then select all your data and EditPaste Special
click divide and OK.

Then format them as currency with 2 decimal places
and $ as the symbol.

Hi Martin,
I am hoping someone will be able to figure out the Custom code, e.g.
$#,##0.00 as I can have up to 50 different columns in a 5 page wookbook.Thank
you for your suggestion which I will use in the meantime.
Cheers,
Banker
