Decimal Point...

[Zoe]

Alright... this is so simple but I just can't figure it out. How do I get
Excel to automatically put a decimal point 2 spaces in? And what I mean
specifically is if I enter 50030. I want it to put the decimal at 500.30.
Help!

If you mean BEFORE beginning to type then goto > 'Tools' > 'Options...' >
'Edit' tab > select 'Fixed decimal point' and choose 2 > OK.
When finished > un-select this option.

But do not forget, this will apply to ALL numbers you type
If you want to post-process a range of numbers:
Type 100 is some empty cell and copy it
Select the range to process and use Edit | Paste Special with Divide
