    Removing % sign, but keeping the formatting

    I have data generated from another source that is all or mostly percents. I
    need to remove the % signs before I put it into yet another program, but just
    removing the percent number format turns 56% into 0.56, which doesn't work
    for me either. I need it to display as just 56. Is there a way to keep the
    percent formatting without actually having the percent sign? Also, I need
    this to work for a large workbook with many, many worksheets.

    Thanks!

    You could try this

    =SUBSTITUTE(G28,"%","")*100

    Or use Text to Columns.

    Tick the other and insert the %

    Or 56% *100
