:) In fact, after a quick search in Google, I found out that there is such a feature in a competing product ;) http://www.teachexcel.com/excel-help/ev.php?i=2957 Maybe this could be added as a feature request for Calc? -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Dollars-Cents-in-Spreadsheet-tp3002443p3004072.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

The OP wants to type 123 and for the cell to display $1.23 Yes I know the accountancy notation pretty well (can even give a clumsy work around). But in the original post I read: " the result would be formatted to 1.23 (one dollar and twenty-three cents). " So I did not conclude that the question was about accountancy notation.

The OP wants to type 123 and for the cell to display $1.23 The only solution I can see is to have a column where you type the values with no point (e.g. 123, 300, 98) and have it divided by 100 in another column and formatted as currency. These calculated values can even be on a separate worksheet so that you have one column for quick data entry and another worksheet where all is presented neatly :) -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Dollars-Cents-in-Spreadsheet-tp3002443p3003620.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
