Currency mode turns numbers into ###

Asked by Letmekilluplz

Whenever I have a number over 7 digits and I press the currency mode button it turns the numbers into ###. It only happens to numbers over 7 digits. Possible Bugs or just a problem?

Hi! That happens every time the number is to big to fit in a cell. There are two basic solutions for this: A) make the cell/column bigger, or B) change the numbers format so it can fit the number in the cell (right click->format cells).
This is the expected behaviour for this application, this way you force the user to look at the entire number.

Hope this helps!
