I have been successful in properly entering fractions into my table.  Now 
however the fractions do not remain as I wrote them but are being reduced to 
the nearest single digit numerator as soon as I go to the next column to enter 
the next fraction..
what must I do to keep the fractions in their original form?

If you have formatted the cell as Fraction it should display 1 1/4 when you enter 1.25 as value If you have formatted as Number with 2 decimals it displays 1.25 with zero decimals if will display 1

Now if you enter 1 1/4 instead of 1.25 it displays 1 ΒΌ, because this value is in the AutoCorrect table the problem with this is that the value is treated as text instead of numeric and hence you can't use this in a calculation.


Thank you.
