decimal.
Currency: Displays the data point value as a monetary amount. Select the currency
unit symbol from the Symbol pop-up menu. In the Decimals field, specify how many
decimal places you want to appear. To display negative values preceded by a minus

Fraction: Displays data point values less than 1 as one integer over another. (If your
values are greater than 1, you won’t see any fractional representation of your data.)
Choose how accurately you want the fractions rounded off in the Accuracy pop-up
menu. Choosing an option such as Halves or Quarters represents the values as a
portion of the total pie, rounded to the nearest division you selected.
Scientific: Displays data point values in scientific notation, where 10 raised to a power
is represented as E+ an integer. In the Decimals field, specify how many decimal places
you want to appear.
Custom: Choose a custom number format you’ve already created, or create a new
one. See “Using Your Own Formats for Displaying Values in Table Cells” on page 184 for
more information.
