Does anyone know how to make the thousand separator work properly? When I got to format number and tick the thousand separator box my number does not look like this: 1.000.000 but like this: 1000000.0.00

Where can I change it to the default setting?
Please help.
Thanks

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
Hi Agga
Try going to Control Panel, Regional Settings and select the Numbers tab. There are quite a few conditions here that you can change.
If this is all correct, and its only one sheet causing a problem, try pasting the formatting from a sheet that does display correctly.
Hope this helps

Thanks for your reply Derek.
I've done that, and it works i.e. to paste from another document with right settings. But the default settings are always the same. So whenever I open a new document or transfer into a .csv file the numbers are not displayed in the right manner and I have to do so much work to fix the number allover.

Anybody has a solution?????

Thank
