English: Excel has many built-in formats that you can use: Currency,
Accounting, Date, Time, Percentage, etc. If you cannot find the right
format, you can create a custom number format.
Custom Number Format
For example, you might have codes that consist of 5 numbers. Instead
of typing 00041, simply type 41 and let Excel add the leading zeros.
1. Enter the value 41 into cell A1.
2. Select cell A1, right click, and then click Format Cells.
3. Select Custom.
4. Type the following number format code: 00000
5. Click OK.

be formatted (under Sample).

Note: cell A1 still contains the number 41. We only changed the
appearance of this number, not the number itself.

Decimal Places
You can also control the number of decimal places. Use 0 to display
the nearest integer value. Use 0.0 for one decimal place. Use 0.00 for
two decimal places, etc.
1. Enter the value 839.1274 into cell A1.
2. Use the following number format code: 0.00
Add Text
You can also add text to your numbers. For example, add "ft".
1. Enter the value 839.1274 into cell A1.
2. Use the following number format code: 0.0 "ft"
Note: remember, we only changed the appearance of this number, not
the number itself. You can still use this number in your calculations.
Large Numbers

You can also control large numbers. Use one comma (,) to display
thousands and use two commas (,,) to display millions.
1. Enter the following values in cells A1, B1, C1 and D1: 1000000,
2500000, 81000000 and 700000.
2. Use the following number format code: 0.0,, "M"
Note: we used 0.0 for one decimal place and "M" to add the letter M.
Repeat Characters
Use the asterisk (*) followed with a character to fill a cell with that
character.
1. Type Hi into cell A1.
2. Use the following number format code: @ *-

Colors
You can control positive numbers, negative numbers, zero values and
text all at the same time! Each part is separated with a semicolon (;) in
your number format code.
1. Enter the following values in cells A1, B1, C1 and A2: 5000000, 0, Hi
and -5.89.
2. Use the following number format
code: [Green]$#,##0_);[Red]$(#,##0);"zero";[Blue]"Text:" @
Note: #,## is used to add comma's to large numbers. To add a space,
use the underscore "_" followed by a character. The length of the space
will be the length of this character. In our example, we added a
parentheses ")". As a result, the positive number lines up correctly with
the negative number enclosed in parentheses. Use two parts separated
with a semicolon (;) to control positive and negative numbers only. Use
