I recently upgraded to Excel 2010 and there is a new "function" that is driving me crazy. When I'm copying and pasting a formula, the cell where I am pasting is automatically showing two decimal places. I've tried multiple things including setting the format of the cell and only pasting formulas, which was to no avail. Any thoughts would be great.
