Do you know if there is a way when keying in numbers using 10 key that you can set up a spread sheet to automatically insert the decimal point? Example I key 12345 and want it to enter as $123.45. I tried to format the sheet using 2 decimal points but it enters it as $12,345.00 vs. $123.45.
 
Hi,

Tools/Options -- Edit Tab -- Check Fixed Decimal with the number of places.

Skip,
