Here is a quick excel number formatting tip. If you ever want to format numbers in such a way that it shows decimal values only if the number is less than 1 you can use conditional custom cell formatting (do not confuse with conditional formatting).
Here is an example:
In such cases you can use conditions in custom cell formatting.
First select the numbers you want to format, hit CTRL+1 (or right mouse click > format cells)- In the “Number” tab, select category as “custom”
- Now, write the formatting condition for custom formatting the cell. In our case the condition looks like
[<1]_($#,##0.00_);_($#,##0_). See to the right. what it means is, if the cell value is less than 1 then format the cell in $#,##0.00 format otherwise format as $#,##0. Excel cell formatting is a tricky business and if you want to master it there is no better source than Peltier's article on Custom Number Formats.
First select the numbers you want to format, hit CTRL+1 (or right mouse click > format cells)More excel tips on formatting:
