We have a large spreadsheet of that includes lists of numbers 18 digits in length, that are sent to us from an outside source. They begin with an apostrophe. When I try to create a custom number format, then remove the apostrophe, the number automatically adds a zero at the end and won't keep the number. Example: 530040297030000006 should look like 53-00-40-297-029.000-006. I added this custom format: ##-##-##-###-###\.###-### but it removes the 6 from the end of number and replaces it with a zero. I don't know if it's rounding, and how to stop that. I'm pretty new at this, and can't figure out what I need to do to keep that from happening. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
