Right Click on the cell and click on format cells. In the Format Cells dialog box, under the tab “Number”, select Custom and type
00and you are done.See snapshot below.
EDIT
Your question talks about two things
Can anyone let me know on how to maintain a ’08’ or ’09’ etc.. in ms excel.Because when i type in 08 and save it…it becomes 8 AND
I want to maintain 0 in front of the decimal.
Which are two different things.
For the second point if you are looking for an output like
.80then again right click on the cell and click onFormat Cells. UnderNumberTab, this time go to “Number” and set the decimals there.
