[Solved] Setting a column @ 2 decimal places?

Post by Duftwone »

I would like to set a column so that when I enter a number, it automatically shows 2 decimal places -- i.e. typing "8" will show "8.00", and typing ".8" it will show ".80". Thanks in advance for your help.

Highlight the entire column by clicking at the top. Then use Format-->Cells-->Numbers set the number of decimal places under options.
