Hi

Is the keyboard setup properly on your computer? Check the keyboard entry in Device Manager and ensure it is working properly. If it is, then you should next check that the regional settings in Control Panel are correct.

Good luck

There may be an undesirable setting in your toolbar setting Format > Cells, check the Number tab, then Fraction, Percentage, Scientific, or even Custom.

If it affects the whole spreadsheet, it could be Format > AutoFormat, in which you would have to highlight multiple cells to check it out.
