Microsoft Office XP accounting

[Josie A]

I'm trying to do an accounting project and the computer I'm on only has
Microsoft XP Home Edition of Excel and therefore doesn't have the accounting
number format in the 'format cells' option. Is there anything I can download
to update this version so that I can get an 'A' on this project?

Well, I've never been aware of a difference in cell formats. There is no
"home" edition of Microsoft Excel. But here's a custom format that appears
when Accounting with 2 decimals is chosen:
_($* #,##0.00_);_($* (#,##0.00);_($* "-"??_);_(@_)

Are you sure you haven't got WORKS and not Excel?
