Where do I find the option to change number format in a Word doc.

I simply want numbers in a particular document to display with 2 decimal
places. But I can't find this function anywhere. Used to be able to right
click to get this kind of function but no more.

Are you perhaps confusing Word with Excel? Word has never had that
capability from a right-click option. You can use a formatting switch if the
number is in a field. Otherwise, you basically get what you type. (I suppose
you might have had an add-in that provided numeric formatting, but I'm not
familiar with any such add-in.)
