Using the Style Buttons to Format Numbers

The Formatting toolbar (just below the Standard toolbar) contains several buttons for applying a format to your numbers, including the following:

Button	Name	Example/Description
	Currency Style	$1,200.90
	Percent Style	20.90%
	Comma Style	1,200.90
	Increase Decimal	Adds one decimal place
	Decrease Decimal	Deletes one decimal place

To use one of these buttons, select the cell or cells you want to format, and then click the desired button. If you would like more formatting options for numeric values, read on; they are covered in the next section.
