How to create a two digit comma separated number format in excel


I need to format numbers in excel as below:

1,00,00,00,000/- for positive number

-1,00,00,00,000/- for negative number

no character for zero

I tried but failed! I am using excel 2007.Could any one help for all version of excels? How to do?


Solution

  • ###,###,###,###,##0\/\-;-###,###,###,###,##0\/\-;""

    does the jobs! But

    [>=10000000000]##\,##\,##\,##0\/-;[<=10000000000]##\,##\,##\,##0\/-;""

    places unnecessary commas while the number is only one digit in length.

    Thank you! But you need to tinker with regional grouping system for number and currency, llike 10,00,00,00,000, as described at https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_excel-mso_win10-mso_2016/thousand-formating-split-number-by-2-digits/1e347f40-4784-4033-b4e3-096b0c9cb5f4
