Formatting Table Cell Values for Display
You can apply a format to a cell to display its value in a particular way. For example,
you can apply the currency format to cells that hold monetary values so that a
currency symbol (such as $, £, or ¥) appears in front of numbers in the cells.
When you use a cell format, you are setting only the display characteristics of a value.
When the value is used in formulas, the actual value is used, not the formatted value.
The only exception is when there are too many numbers following a decimal point, in
which case the number is rounded.
Here are ways to work with cell formats:
You apply cell formats by selecting one or more cells and then using the Cell Format m
pop-up menu in the Table inspectors Format pane.
To add a value to an empty cell that has a format, select the cell and enter a value. The m
format is applied when you leave the cell.
If you delete a value from a cell with a format, the cell’s format isn’t deleted. To delete m
the format, apply the automatic format. To delete the value and format, choose Edit >
Clear All.
After you dene a cell format, you can associate the format with multiple cells by using m
autolling. See Autolling Table Cells on page 193 for instructions.
