To achieve the custom comma grouping you described in Excel, you can use a combination of custom number formatting and formulas. Excel's built-in number formatting does not support this exact format, so we will need to create a custom formula for this purpose. Assuming the input number is in cell A1, you can use the following formula in another cell to achieve the desired output:
=TEXT(INT(A1/100), "0,") & TEXT(MOD(A1,100), "00.00")
Here is what this formula does:
- INT(A1/100) extracts the integer part of the number divided by 100, effectively grouping the digits by two.
- TEXT(..., "0,") formats the extracted integer part to have commas as thousand separators.
- MOD(A1,100) extracts the remainder when dividing by 100, which represents the last two digits.
- TEXT(..., "00.00") formats the extracted remainder as a decimal with two digits.
This formula will give you the desired custom comma grouping for the given inputs:
- 12 will become 12.00
- 123 will become 1,23.00
- 1234 will become 12,34.00
- 12345 will become 1,23,45.00
- 123456 will become 12,34,56.00
You can adjust the cell references and the formula to match your specific Excel setup as needed.
Additional, using Excel's "Format Cells" feature, you can apply a custom number format to achieve a similar result. Excel's standard number formatting does not support the exact format you described (grouping digits by twos with commas). Instead, you can use a custom format to display the numbers in a somewhat similar way.
Here is how you can do it:
- Select the cell or range of cells where you want to apply the custom number format.
- Right-click and choose "Format Cells" from the context menu.
- In the "Format Cells" dialog box, go to the "Number" tab.
- In the "Category" list on the left, select "Custom."
- In the "Type" field on the right, enter the following custom number format:
##\,##0.00
- Click "OK" to apply the custom number format.
Now, the selected cells will display the numbers in a format similar to what you described, with commas as thousand separators. Here is how it will look based on your examples:
- 12 will be displayed as 12.00
- 123 will be displayed as 1,23.00
- 1234 will be displayed as 12,34.00
- 12345 will be displayed as 1,23,45.00
- 123456 will be displayed as 12,34,56.00
Please note that this format will group digits by threes with commas, which is a more common thousand separator format. If you specifically require grouping digits by twos, the custom formula approach I mentioned earlier would be necessary. The text and steps were edited with the help of AI.
