Remarks
Numbers in Microsoft Excel can never have more than 15 significant digits, but decimals can be as large as 127.
If decimals is negative, number is rounded to the left of the decimal point.
If you omit decimals, it is assumed to be 2.
If no_commas is false or omitted, then the returned text includes commas as usual.
The major difference between formatting a cell containing a number with the Cells command (Format menu) and formatting a number directly with the FIXED function is that Fixed converts its result to text. A number formatted with the Cells command is still a number.
