Inserting a number and having it displayed as you typed

[Bev]

Want to insert a number in one cell of a worksheet and have it displayed as
such. However it either rounds the number off or inserts a decimal point.
I do not want this number for any mathematical function. I am inserting a
P.O. # for simply reference sake

First format the column or cell or row as text using Format-->Cells, Number
tab.
