I have already went through all previous questions but didn't find an answer to my question. I need to display this number 4935320154684405 but there's no way Excel let me do it. It displays 4,93532E+15 or 4935320154684400 but never the correct one.

How can I get Excel to display the number in full?

  • Welcome to Super User. Have you tried to change the cell format to text so it will allow the entire number to be displayed?

  • Thank you CharlieRB, changing cell format to text let it display the number as I want but is useless if i need to use it for calculation

  • Sorry. You asked how to display it, but said nothing about using it in a calculation. That is an important detail.

You need to set a custom cell format.
Select the cell format dropdown and change it to select the number of digits required.

You can remove the comma separators as you wish
