Hi!

I got this formula: =TEXT(4.93838382;CHOOSE($D$29;"0.0";"0.00";"0.000")), so if D29 has 1, it will choose "0.0", if 2, "0.00" and so on. My problem is this only works with decimal conventions in English. Since Spanish uses commas for decimals, the formula does not work. Any ideas to work around this? Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Not sure if this will cover all cases but give this a try:
Excel Formula:
=TEXT(4.93838382,"0"&MID(4.93838382,LEN(INT(4.93838382))+1,1)&REPT("0",D29))
or
Excel Formula:
=LET(x,4.93838382,
         TEXT(x,"0"&MID(x,LEN(INT(x))+1,1)&REPT("0",D29)))
