    Show values in percentages

    I want to show values entered with percentage sign.(%) Right now, if i enter any value say,10 in a cell having percentage format, shows 1000%. For that, I don't want to enter 0.1. I just want to enter any value and see it with percentage symbol.

    Please, solve my problem.
    Thanks.

    I think if you use a custom format like:

    0"%"

    this would do that.

    hemal72, Good morning.

    This behavior just happen when you FIRST have data on cells and AFTER you format the cells as percentages.

    Try to do:

    Select a Cell --> D4
    Format as PERCENTAGE
    Type 10 as you desire.
    It appears as 10%

    Is it waht you want?
    I hope it helps.

    Dear Hemal72,

    I think that this one happen only the first time when you click Icon percent style or format cell is percentage.

    when you put data is 10 and click % button then data show 1000%.

    but if you key data again it will show 10%.

    other you have to assign the cell as percentage before key in value

    i hope that this suggest can help you

    Best regards,
