How do I change this so that the number of games reads as a number, no dollars signs, or decimals?

[Blind-Computing] Another excel question
I was filling in a spreadsheet for Bingo, yesterday, and a strange thing happened. I should explain, first, that my spreadsheet covers money dispensed during bingo, plus other related factors. I added a new column, Number Of Games. I had Six dollars left in the bank, which I notated. The number of games played was 6. When I wrote in the 6, It came up as six dollars, responding to the entry of the same listing in another column. How do I change that second six dollars into a just plain six, which sites the number of games played?

Re: [Blind-Computing] Another excel question
In excel 2003, where just tested it now, if I select certain cells, and then off format menu, choose cells... and then on numbers tab/page, I can specify that it's a general number, currency, etc. etc. HTH Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA '...fate had broken his body, but not his spirit...' - Original Message - From: Cliff Smales csma...@att.net To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, January 03, 2012 7:25 PM Subject: [Blind-Computing] Another excel question I was filling in a spreadsheet for Bingo, yesterday, and a strange thing happened.
