format cell problem

If the cell is formatted for currency, and you want to keep it that way, and
you do not wish to do any caluclations, then you cannot change the appearance
of the value in the cell.

If you wis to use a formula in a helper cell, this will do it, but the
format is no longer currency, it's TEXT.......

=A1*100&" cents"

thanks for reply but there must be a way ,
for example when I have data like 1,600 , using format cell category #,#,
results in 1.6 as apperance of cell .
