DISPLAY ZERO WITH LINE THROUGH IT

DISPLAY ZERO WITH LINE THROUGH IT · 10-07-2005, 11:05 AM

I have government reports that need to show a zero with a line through it so
they are VERY distinguishable from the letter "O". I cannot find a format
that displays this. I need this ASAP! Can anyone help me please?!

Try changing the font of the cell concerned:

Try font like "terminal", "WST_Engl", "Fixedsys"

these fonts will display zero with a diagonal line from the top right to the
bottom left of the number.

Display,

Try the "Terminal" font. If you don't have that, look for another that has
the zero you need. There are CD's you can get with loads of fonts that
don't cost much.

If you wish, I can email you a True Type Arial font with a slashed zero.
