    Keep same format

    Hi,

    I am using ="Currently"&" "&B34&" "&"Complete"
    B34 is 50% but is returned in the above as 0.5

    How can I keep the same format ie 50%

    Thanks
    Kevin

    Maybe this?

    ="Currently"&" "&B34*100&"% "&"Complete"

    add text to it like this...
    ="Currently "&text(B34,"0%")&" Complete"
    and you can consolidate the spaces into the other text areas.
