I have something weird happening to my excel data.
I have a list of times formatted like mm:ss,00 so 00:38,25 means 38 seconds and 250 milliseconds.
But when I select one of these cells, the formula bar displays 00:00:38 and if I want to edit to let's say 00:40,25 I can't because the ,25 just dissapears into the nether.
So what can I do so that the formula bar shows what is actually in the cell?
Here are some screens
Thank you
How the time is displayed in the formula bar is controlled by your regional settings [customise > Time]. In my version of Excel, at least, I can change it to show AM or PM but I can't add milliseconds, so it may not be possible to display in the formula bar.
You can edit by just re-keying the new time value

I have 2 columns, each with a numeric value. The third column is the PRODUCT of the first 2 columns but it is just numbers. I want to in the format of $xxxx.00 rather than xxxx.
What can I do to achieve this?
RIght click on the column header and choose Format Cells
Format the cell to currency. It's a command on the Home ribbon.

I'm attempting to create a scatter plot that has specific dates as the X-axis and specific times as the Y-axis. After some fidgeting around, I've gotten the desired data points but one problem remains: the range of both axises is too large.
For example, my time data points are between 6:00AM and 12:00PM but 12:00AM to 6:00AM is included and I can't get rid of it. Same goes for the dates, where the range is between 12/27/2013 and 4/30/2014, but I have dates as early as 11/22/2013 and as late as 5/21/2014.
Does anyone know how to trim this data range?
Right click on the axis in your diagram, choose "format axis". There you'll be able to enter whatever axis range you desire (choose "fixed" instead of auto through the radio button).

I tried to store 999,999,999,999,999.22 in Microsoft Excel. but its automatically rounded to 999,999,999,999,999.00.
What is the maximum number can store in MS excel with 2 decimal places?
How we store large numbers in excel files?
I haven't looked at the documentations, but I did a quick test on my Excel 2007 and those are the results:
It's pretty self-explanatory and to answer your second question, you can store the numbers as text by pre-pending the number with a single quote: ' (e.g. Use '999999999999999.22). It's not ideal, but that works. You'll have to multiply it by 1 or add 0 if you use this value in a formula.

I need to take the value corresponding to a certain date, and use it in another table or sheet:
In one sheet, I have two columns, one for the dates (every day of the year) and the other for the fixed values.
In the other sheet, I need to take those fixed values according to the date, which I enter manually.
Tried using the IF function with no success.
Here is an example using =VLOOKUP:

I have an Excel spreadsheet here.
What I dont know is
if you look at the main grid the columns are formatted for space so that the description is larger. Now the part at the bottom left. I really want those 4 columns
'RESIDENT NAME' 'ACCOUNT NUMBER' 'DATE' 'AMOUNT DUE'
I really want them aligned with the rest of the grid but how do i subdivide the large Description column to accomodate this?
Because of your formatting in your question I can't be sure what you want, but if you're trying to line up more than one column with the Description column, just make the Description column a merge of more than one column, then multiple columns will be able to fit underneath it.
You can merge cells by selecting them, then going to Format Cells->Alignment and clicking the Merge cells box.
