Default Format Number

Both David and Shane methods work if your data is value or formated as
currency, ie 100.00 or $100.00
However, if your data is text which was typed in as $100.00, try this
formula and copy as far down as your data is :

=VALUE(SUBSTITUTE(A2,"$","")*100)

I am trying to figure out how to format $100.00 as 10000. When I
format it I get 100 or 100.00. Thank you
