How to format numbers in cells to show thousands separator and two decimal places. I tried to search , could not find any thread about this. Someone please help. I am new to smartsheet.
Hi,
In the toolbar, there is a .00> button (the button furthest to the right) where you can increase the decimal.
Hope that helps!
Have a fantastic weekend!

Many Thanks Andree and yes that was easy to do after you showed me how. Nice tip.
Great!
Happy to help!

This works for formatting a column but when using join to merge column data I haven't found a way to format a number inline in a formula like you can do in excel.
Can you explain in more detail what you mean? Maybe provide some examples of what you are trying to accomplish?
Oh. My. God. I have brought mapping data into Smartsheet, only to see my X and Y coordinates be rounded down from 13 decimal places to FIVE. Are you KIDDING ME? Those numbers MEAN SOMETHING! Is there a setting somewhere to expand the max????
Hi @Suzanne Raphael
Can you share some examples of the numbers you're using?
Can you describe your process in more detail and maybe share the sheet(s)/copies of the sheet(s) or some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@getdone.se)
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Hello, I have a workflow where, when a team member checks a checkbox, Smartsheet automatically sends an email to themselves containing merge fields that are used as a customer email draft.

Hi all, reaching out to see if of you have ideas; I'm hoping this makes sense: I'm having some trouble getting my formulas to pull data in correctly. I currently have a sheet (primary data) where I have data in rows where each row is a single project, with columns identifying persons, $ values, unique project identifier,…
