Hi Sam,
            I see your point about using the other formatting conditions; it 
turns all my significant values after the decimal place to zero. I have gone 
through our correspondences and have uncovered this format you previously 
suggested: # ### ### ### ###\,00

I have two general issues that I can't seem to resolve. When I use this format 
I lose the significance of my figures. As an example if I have $0.54 (which is 
in millions) and I use the above format it converts the value to ,01 which is 
not correct.
The other part is that I can't get a leading zero if the value is less than a 
whole number:

English -> $0.25
French  ->   0,25

When I change the format to equal: # ### ### ### ###\0,00 to provide a leading 
zero it converts whole numbers to zero and that is not correct either. Any help 
you can provide will be super!

I really appreciate your patience with this issue.
Thank you!
Kent

Which is what I was point out all along in my previous mails Kent. You'll have 
to use the other format that I suggested. With the format you are using, it 
will always show a ,00 in the end, instead of the decimal values. And you'll 
have to divide in by 10,000 instead of 1,000,000 just to compensate for the 
work around.

Regards,

Sam

The format that you provided is really good but I have one other issue. What I 
have been doing is taking a very large number (in the millions) and I have 
reducing by millions and then rounding. Here is an example:

English accounting:
1)       $4,333,222 -> =round((4,333,222/1,000,000),2)
2)       To give me = $4.33 in Million.


French Accounting:
When I convert the French accounting using the provided format code; this is 
what I get:

1)       4 333 222 -> =round((4333222/1000000),2)
2)       It gives me = 4,00 in Million.


Which is inconsistent with the English but the English is correct in terms of 
how I need to illustrate the numbers.  I should have said that I was rounding 
down to small numbers but I didn't think at the time it was necessary.

Just to be clear:

It would be IDEAL if the results for the French could be equal to and formatted 
like: 4,33 Million.
You guys have been very helpful - much appreciated!

Thank you,
Kent

Hi guys!
            I have a quick question regarding formats. I have to
convert english accounting procedures into French accounting
procedures.

In English one thousand dollars is equal to $1,000.00.
In French one thousand dollars is equal to 1 000,00.

the difference is that the comma before a thousand is replaced with a
space AND our decimal is replaced with a comma and NO dollar sign.

Another example is:

In English one thousand dollars is equal to $9,555,333.00.
In French one thousand dollars is equal to 9 555 333,00.

Can you help me create this custom format? Your help is great
appreciated!!

Thank you,
Kent
