There are many more possible formats and you can even create your own with custom formats. In this example of Dec, 31 2016, the date is really stored in Excel as the value 42735 regardless of the format. This is because Excel stores dates as a serial number between 1 and 2,958,465 which represent dates between. The goal of the date serial number is to avoid having Excel view something like as different from 16-Dec-31 because they are written differently. Go to theNumber tab (it is the default tab if you haven’t opened before). Select Custom in the Category list. Type in #,##0.0, “K” to display 1,500,800 as 1,500.8 K. Click OK to apply formatting.
