I have a data sheet that has data that is in the millions. Instead of
having a number show as 302,000,000. is it possible to have it show as 302 without retyping it. Please let me know Thanks |

The formatting solution will change how the number appears but the large
value is stilled stored in the cell. The actually change the value, put 1000000 in an empty cell and copy it; select all the cells to be treated; use menu command Edit | Paste Special and click the Divide box; click OK best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "Fawn" wrote in message ...

Another way, assuming you want to input the data in actual, and merely view it later with just the millions showing is to create a new sheet (further assumtion is that your data is on sheet1, starting at cell A1) =LEFT(Sheet1!A1,LEN(Sheet1!A1)-6 the minus 6 at the end will take 6 digits off the right of your number- so if you want to display less, make it 7, or 8, etc... Hope that helps (my first post here)!! Good Luck! Fawn wrote: I have a data sheet that has data that is in the millions.
