If you lose the "mm", then you can get what you need by using ,### as the format - without the leading zero. But adding the trailing text seems to resurrect the comma (well, point, in my case). Can you use this and move the "mm" into a separate column? Brian Barker
Actually 0,### also works as long as there is no text involved, so I don't have to omit the leading zero. Yes, I can probably find some workarounds, like the one you suggested (I have actually done that before), but I think bringing in the "mm" (millimeter) with the cell formatting seemed to be very convenient, at least in my specific case. Maybe I also can live with the comma, but since it works without the text, shouldn't it also work with it? This seems to be an "is this a bug or not" question. So without added text in the format code, the comma (or point) appears when it need to be there and with text, it always appears (as long as I enter a number). Why is this? If the behaviour was changed to what I am asking for, would there be any arguments against it? In that case, what arguments? Johnny Andersson
