Thanks Arvi - I just figured it out myself using this formula
="Annually, at the "&TEXT(L32,"$0.00")&" weekly figu" and formatting cell as currency. :) Didn't see any semi colons in your formulas. Again, thanks for leading me towards the right direction. Regards, Bob "Arvi Laanemets" wrote in message ... Sorry! Replace semicoons in formula with commas! Arvi Laanemets "Bob Smith" wrote in message hlink.net... "Arvi Laanemets" wrote in message ... Hi =TEXT(A1;"$#.00") = "Annually, at the " & TEXT(L32;"$#.00") & " weekly figu" Format affects only the cell, it is applied to. Really it affects how data in formatted cell are displayed, not the data itself. I.e. when you format the cell with number 2 as currency, it is displayed as $2.00, but really the cell contains the number 2. Format ther same cell as date - and 2nd January of 1900 is displayed, etc. When you reference the cell, then the source format is not inherited. Arvi Laanemets Thanks again for the reply Arvi, but the above isn't working. I've done a copy & paste on the formula above, formatted the cell for text, then tried currency and neither one works. Is it possible that there is an extra space character I need to take out? Thanks, Bob |
