More Decimals After F2+Enter

[famaral]

Hi. I'm new here and have been trying to find an answer to this forever... I believe this might be of interest to other users as well.

My problem is: after I press F2 + Enter on a calculated cell, excel changes rounding to match the formula's outcome decimal places.

Question: How do I prevent this from happening?

Example:
A1 = 1
B1 = 3
C1= A1/B1

If my spreadsheet is formatted to zero decimal places, C1=0.
However, after I go to C1 and F2+Enter, C1=0.33.

My objective is to prevent this from happening. In other words, C1 should continue to be =0. I'm hoping the solution to this is a change in settings that overrides this activity for good, rather than using a formula or vba code, which for my use would be a no go. I work with financial models, and most of the time I'm not interested in seeing the decimals. But I have to view and edit my formulas very frequently. Changing the decimals as I do this has become very annoying...

Regards,
famaral

I'm not sure why it's changing. But I would say, if you want to always have it just display the first number only, force that in custom formatting with the above code. But if you're in financials, you probably want red or () around negative numbers.

0;[Red]-0;0

0;[Red](0);0

0;(0);0
