Default Keeping the exponent at a fix value in Excel

Hi

When formatting in Scientific, how can you keep the exponent constant and
allow the decimal point to move?
For example

If I have:
6.647E-03
1.741E-02
8.378E-02

How do I ensure that Excel keeps the E to E-3 and adjust the decimal point?

Cheers

Don't use "Scientific", use "Engineering" notation.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
