hi,
i have faced the following problem

i entered 52.7 (A1)in a cell but it treated as character.
i set this as number after that i put formula "=A1*2" but showed
"#VALUE" in that cell .

how can i get rid of this problem?

bye

If you are saying that you typed the text string "52.7 (A1)" into a cell,
then formatting it as a number won't turn it into a number, it will still be
text. If you want it as a number, you just need the 52.7
