    Cells dropping last to numbers

    All of the sudden when I enter a number like 3500 I get 35 in the cell. If I enter 12345 I get 124. The cells are formatted as GENERAL. Changing to numeric format (zero decimals) produces the same result. To retain the last two numbers, I must enter the decimal point at the end of the number.

    I assume I've set something somewhere, but don't know where to look. Any ideas?

    Thanks
