I selected the data type as number and the format as percentage... but when I
write 20% it comes out 2000%. How o I make that to show only 2 places
instead of 4?

Thank you

Type .2 for 20 percent.

Or store the nominal value of 20 and manipulate by dividing by 100 when
you need the percent value for calculations.
