What function does the property "Decimal Places" serve?

I have it set to auto, enter 4.75, it rounds to 5

I have it set to 1 decimal, I enter 4.75, it rounds to 5

I have it set at 2 decimals, and enter 4.75, and it rounds it to 5

How do I actually display the decimals?

I don't care about Datasheet view, but my asp tables need to show the decimals.

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
to show the decimals, try changing the Format to "Fixed" with 2 under decimal places

By default, your numerical data types will be Long Integer which only allows for Integers. Change your Data Type to either Single or Double.
