I enter the value 22000 in a cell and it shows at 220, truncated the final two zeros. the cell is formated as general with no custom formating. I'm stumped.
 

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.
go to the tools menu, select 'options', select the 'edit' tab, and make sure that fixed decimal is NOT checked. does this solve your problem?

BTW, you'll know that Kevin's recommendation applies if you see "FIX" in the lower right-hand corner of the Status Bar.
