I need to signify whole number entries by entering a decimal after the last digit. After reinstalling, that option no longer works. I am using the fixed decimal option for 2 decimal places, and I do not wish to change this option. I just need the final decimal to override it. For example:

Entry:

3 0 8 [point] should equal the whole number 308. Presently it equals 3.08

I know there is a setting for this, I have dealt with this issue before, but I can't find it.

Thank you,

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
I think just this:

1) Tools | Options
2) Edit tab
3) Check the box for "fixed decimals and choose a number of decimal places.
