FIXED

Returns a number as text with a specified format.

Syntax:

FIXED(number; decimals; omitseparators)

returns text representing number with decimals decimal places. If omitseparators (optional) is TRUE thousands-separators will be omitted. In the absence of omitseparators thousands separators are included.
The thousands-separator character used is dependent on your locale settings; see Tools → Options → Language Settings → Languages.

Example:

FIXED(1234567.89; 3)

returns 1,234,567.890 as text, if your locale uses a comma as the thousands-separator.

FIXED(1234567.89; 3; TRUE)

returns 1234567.890 as text.

Issues:

  • Because it depends on locale settings, FIXED should not be regarded as portable.
  • The omitseparators parameter appears in the formula bar as a number, rather than TRUE or FALSE. This does not affect its function.
