Can Excel fill bagel flavors?
You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
is this the formula it gives me different results
=10^(--RIGHT(TEXT(A1,"#,###############E+000"),4)+7-LEN(TEXT(A1,"#,###############E+000")))
123
result
0.1
Try "#.###...". XL2BB does not translate "," into "." within strings.
And what do you expect for an input of
10
100
1000
?
My formula will return the same (because the 0s are not significant).
