    Removing decimal point while maintaining # of decimal places

    I need to convert a column of numbers currently formatted with 2 decimal places e.g. 112.12 to 4 decimal places (without the decimal point)

    I need the end result to be 1121200

    I've tried a few different suggestions given on the forum previously but can't seem to retain the 4 decimal places that I require.

    Appreciate any help. Thanks.

    You can also type the number 10000 anywhere in an available cell and copy it... then select the range of cells you want to convert. Go to Edit|Paste Special and select Multiply... click OK.

    Then you can delete that cell with 10000 in it.
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
