Was wondering if there's a way to get a "Dollars&  Cents" format when
entering numbers in the spreadsheet.  In other words if you enter "1-2-3" in
a cell, the result would be formatted to 1.23 (one dollar and twenty-three
cents).  This is useful for accountants and others who regularly enter
financial data involving currency.  In MS Excel there is a checkbox for this
in the options menu.  Is there any way to get this type of format in Libre
Office?
Simply Format>Cells
Or via the Styles window (F11) you can also define styles for 
(different) cells
HTH,
Cor
