FIXED

Rounds a number to the specified number of decimals, formats the number in decimal format using a period and commas, and returns the result as text.

Syntax

FIXED(number,decimals,no_commas)

Number is the number you want to round and convert to text.

Decimals is the number of digits to the right of the decimal point.

No_commas is a logical value that, if TRUE, prevents FIXED from including commas in the returned text.

Remarks

Numbers in a spreadsheet can never have more than 15 significant digits, but decimals can be as large as 127.
If decimals is negative, number is rounded to the left of the decimal point.
If you omit decimals, it is assumed to be 2.
If no_commas is FALSE or omitted, then the returned text includes commas as usual.
