I've tried putting space characters before and after the period - no luck
I am trying to write a custom cell format that would allow me to replace the comma with a space after the thousand's place. Therefore, 1 million would look like: 1 000 000 instead of 1,000,000. I do NOT want to change my regional settings to accomplish this.
When I write ### ### ### it accomplishes this, however, there is one small glitch. When you apply an "underline" you get the following result:
_1
_10
_100
_1 000
_10 000
_100 000
1 000 000
10 000 000
100 000 000
The underline does not lineup evenly with the "ones" digit until we reach 1 million. I want to write a universal format in which the underline lines up evenly regardless of the number.
how do I put a space?
12345 ** =A1&B2 gives me 12345CD
but I want 12345 **
I have the following IF function in a spreadsheet. =IF(AE2 = "AZ", "We've recently changed our name from Company A to Company B.", "")
How do you Make it so there is a Space at the end of the period?
I have a file of names that has some undisplayable characters. I am trying to match against a different file. It works if I overtype the "blank" fields with a space. How can remove these trailing problem characters whatever they are? I tried CLEAN and TRIM and the mystery characters are still there.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a column in my sheet which I need to be displayed with dashes.
Excample: 123456 -> 12-235-6 (just an example)
But once in a while in the code is a letter like: 123A56 which obviously I need to be displayed like 12-3A5-6

I have been playing with custom formats recently and I'm wondering if there is anyway to make them wrap?
specifically I have several results that I have been formatting to show what they are related to
397235 visitors 392648 visitors 365487 visitors
I want these to display as visitors, but still be numbers so that they can be summed etc.
The problem is that I need the text to wrap so that visitors is on the second line in the cell. unfortunatley all i get is a ########## error to show the cell is not wide enough even with wrap text turned on.
I would like to format a row of cells. I want each cell in the row to contain (and show) both an interger and text. The interger will range in value from one to ~10,000. The text will always be two characters long...but these characters will change from cell to cell.
Elsewhere in the spreadsheet I will have a cell (w/ a formula) that counts the values of the intergers in the row, but ignores the text in each cell.
a procedure for format ing the cells in the row?
This is my formula and it returns: -55 bps.
=[ASK.xls]QTR!$AT$81&" "&"bps"
However, I want it to return (55 bps). I don't want to just add the parenthesis because in the future this formula could return a positive number. I tried to format the cell differently, but that did not work.
How to modify a custom cell format to make data entry easier.
My goal is to have the output look like this: 'A12B-C20D: SET 10: Text string here'
Inputs needed are:
1-3 digit number between A & B
1-3 digit number between C & D
1-2 digit number after SET
Text string of variable length
Where I am stuck. So far I can get "A12B-C20D: SET 10:" to show up properly when 122010 is input. The custom format I am using looks like this: "A"##"B-C"##"D: SET "##": "
When I try to incorporate the "@" symbol the first part of the formatting goes away and the output shows up as "122010 Text string here".
I have tried:
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##":";;-;_@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##": ";;@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##":";_@
"A"###"B-C"###"D: SET "##": ";;;@
