Decimal points

[=10000000]##\,##\,##\,##0.00;[=100000]##\,##\,##0.00;##,##0.00

All the hashes represent a number, but show as blank if they are leading
zeroes. With normal numbers, you just define

#,##0.00

and Excel will add a comma every 3rd digit, but as Indian numbers have
commas in 2nd digit in some cases, it all has to be explicitly defined.

Dear Phillips,

my requirement is as below
no matter what the number is it should display 2 decimal places & then going
from left to right 1st 3 digits left alone after which there should be comma
after every 2 digits.

eg:
100 = 100.00
1000 = 1,000.00
10000 = 10,000.00
100000 = 1,00,000.00
1000000 = 10,00,000.00
10000000 = 1,00,00,000.00
100000000 = 10,00,00,000.00
1000000000 = 1,00,00,00,000.00
10000000000 = 10,00,00,00,000.00
...... & so on

That is difficult, because the format only allows a certain number of
conditions, and we have exhausted them.
