So possibly the dollar sign could have defaulted from this transition? When the spreadsheet is open I go to format ~ cell protection ~ numbers, then I have a list starting with: All User ~ defined Number Percent I have no idea how to change this as I’ve tried several things to no avail. All I need the time sheet column to do is add up my hours and not display a dollar sign. If you know how to change this please share. If not no worries. Thank you!
