IF formula shows "0" as text and not a number
IF formula shows "0" as text and not a number. Other cells that have a calculation off this formula are impacted causing a long decimal (2820031.881430) . Smartsheet is not allowing me to increase/decrease decimal length, nor change to $ dollar format. HELP

@Ryan Weiss That is correct. Using quotes around a number will convert it to text.
