I'm trying to use numbers from one sheet on another sheet, but when i use the numers combined in a formula with words, the numbers only use 2 decimal places if they're not zero

so for example if one of the numbers is 5435.40, in the second sheet the number just comes as 5435.4

is there any way i can get that zero there or is it a lost cause?

here's an example of one of the formula's i'm trying to use:

="Expenses (allowance) = $"&'Sheet2'!B9
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
If you don't want the dollar sign you can use
="Expenses (allowance) = " & TEXT(Sheet2!B9,"#.00")
