Custom Number Formats - Billion Dollars Rounded

[coastal]

Ok. Thanks to the discussion group I was given the following custom
formatting setting so that I could round numbers.

[>=1000000000] $#,###,, "Billion";[>=1000000]$#,, "Mil"; $#, "k"

The above will formatt this $1,965,532 into this $2 Mil
But will also formatt this $1,838,928 into this $2 Mil

I need to adjust the custom number formatting so that I get the following
instead
$1.9 Mil
$1.8 Mil

Any suggestions?

coastal,

How about this?

[>=1000000000] $#,###,, "Billion";[>=1000000]$#.#,, "Mil"; $#, "k"

HTH,

Conan

 

[Tyro]

[>=1000000000] $#,###,, "Billion";[>=1000000]$#0.0,, "Mil"; $#, "k"

 

[Conan Kelly]

woops,

I mean

[>=1000000000] $#,###,, "Billion";[>=1000000]$#.0,, "Mil"; $#, "k"

But 1,965,532 will round up to 2.0 mil because 60,000 is rounding up causing
900,000 to round up to the next mil

1,945,532 should round to 1.9 mil.

[>=1000000000] $#,###,, "Billion";[>=1000000]$#.#,, "Mil"; $#, "k"

Just noticed your format for billion is wrong. It's formatting 1.5 Billion
as 1,500 Billion. Try this:

[>=1000000000] $#,##0.0,,, "Billion";[>=1000000]$#0.0,, "Mil"; $#, "k"

Tyro

[>=1000000000] $#,###,, "Billion";[>=1000000]$#0.0,, "Mil"; $#, "k"

Another thing:

1,838,928,000 will be displayed as $1,839 Billion, which is technically
incorrect. That would either be 1.8 billion or 1,839 million (sorry about
the nerdy anal-ness).

Thought I'd let you know. If it is for something official, you might want
to change that or it might look like your numbers are off by 3 decimal
places.

If it is just for yourself, just keep that in mind.

[>=1000000000] $#.0,, "Billion";[>=1000000]$#.0,, "Mil"; $#, "k"

will get you "$1.8 Billion"

[>=1000000000] $#,###,, "Million";[>=1000000]$#.0,, "Mil"; $#, "k"

will get you "$1,839 Million"
