Excel 2003 custom number format returning odd value

Asked by smalzahn in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

Tags: Excel number format

I have a column in an Excel spreadheet that needs to show values like 10-7 or 10-20 so I created a custom number which was working, but something happened so now when you type 10-7 it returns something like 140093-7. I have tried clearing the cells, but this problem continues.
