Formula Format


Posted by Rob on June 22, 2001 3:26 PM

Question: I have a cell which has the following formula: ="Balance Pending: " & F100 . I would like the F100 to be formatted as a Currency. If I format the whole cell as a currency, it does nothing because there is text in it also.

Any help is appreciated,
Thanks.

How about:

="Balance Pending: $" & F100

That doesnt format the number

Aladin,
That puts a $ in front, but doesnt format the number as a currency. ie: $50,000.00 . I need the commas and 2 deciaml places.

Use this one:

="Balance Pending: " & TEXT(F100, "$000,0.00")
