Youcan use number formats to change the appearance of numbers, including dates and times, without changing the actual number. The number format does not affect the cell value that Excel uses to perform calculations. The actual value is displayed in the formula bar.
Excel provides several built-in number formats. You can use these built-in formats as is, or you can use them as a basis for creating your own custom number formats. When you create custom number formats, you can specify up to four sections of format code. These sections of code define the formats for positive numbers, negative numbers, zero values, and text, in that order. The sections of code must be separated by semicolons (;).
If you specify only one section of format code, the code in that section is used for all numbers. If you specify two sections of format code, the first section of code is used for positive numbers and zeros, and the second section of code is used for negative numbers. When you skip code sections in your number format, you must include a semicolon for each of the missing sections of code. You can use the ampersand (&) text operator to join, or concatenate, two values.
To create a number format that includes text that is typed in a cell, insert an "at" sign (@) in the text section of the number format code section at the point where you want the typed text to be displayed in the cell. If the @ character is not included in the text section of the number format, any text that you type in the cell is not displayed; only numbers are displayed. You can also create a number format that combines specific text characters with the text that is typed in the cell. To do this, enter the specific text characters that you want before the @ character, after the @ character, or both. Then, enclose the text characters that you entered in double quotation marks (" "). For example, to include text before the text that's typed in the cell, enter "gross receipts for "@ in the text section of the number format code.
To create a space that is the width of a character in a number format, insert an underscore (_) followed by the character. For example, if you want positive numbers to line up correctly with negative numbers that are enclosed in parentheses, insert an underscore at the end of the positive number format followed by a right parenthesis character.
You can use number format codes to control the display of digits before and after the decimal place. Use the number sign (#) if you want to display only the significant digits in a number. This sign does not allow the display non-significant zeros. Use the numerical character for zero (0) if you want to display non-significant zeros when a number might have fewer digits than have been specified in the format code. Use a question mark (?) if you want to add spaces for non-significant zeros on either side of the decimal point so that the decimal points align when they are formatted with a fixed-width font, such as Courier New. You can also use the question mark (?) to display fractions that have varying numbers of digits in the numerator and denominator.
If a number has more digits to the left of the decimal point than there are placeholders in the format code, the extra digits are displayed in the cell. However, if a number has more digits to the right of the decimal point than there are placeholders in the format code, the number is rounded off to the same number of decimal places as there are placeholders. If the format code contains only number signs (#) to the left of the decimal point, numbers with a value of less than 1 begin with the decimal point, not with a zero followed by a decimal point.
To specify the color for a section in the format code, type the name of one of the following eight colors in the code and enclose the name in square brackets as shown. The color code must be the first item in the code section.
To indicate that a number format will be applied only if the number meets a condition that you have specified, enclose the condition in square brackets. The condition consists of a comparison operator and a value. For example, the following number format will display numbers that are less than or equal to 100 in a red font and numbers that are greater than 100 in a blue font.
To hide zeros or to hide all values in cells, create a custom format by using the codes below. The hidden values appear only in the formula bar. The values are not printed when you print your sheet. To display the hidden values again, change the format to the General number format or to an appropriate date or time format.
The regional settings for currency determine the position of the currency symbol (that is, whether the symbol appears before or after the number and whether a space separates the symbol and the number). The regional settings also determine the decimal symbol and the thousands separator. You can control these settings by using the Mac OS X International system preferences.
The Grand Traverse County Building Department is responsible for protecting the health, safety, and welfare of the people who visit and live in Grand Traverse County by regulating the construction of our built environment to ensure compliance with construction codes, ordinances, and related rules and regulations.

The Colorado Energy Office (CEO) created an Energy Code Adoption Toolkit to assist Colorado jurisdictions through the process of energy code adoption. The toolkit provides information on the benefits of adopting a more current energy code, and gives tips on how to navigate the typical adoption process. It also includes several resources that:
The resources in this Energy Code Adoption Toolkit are designed to put all of the necessary code adoption information in one place, while walking jurisdictions through the process. If you can't find your answer in these resources, you can submit a question to our Code Helpline and our subject matter experts will respond to you via email within three business days.
When adopting building codes, the Chief Building Official (CBO) often discusses the update with various stakeholders, including the City Council, the Board of County Commissioners, and the local building community, among others. This section provides talking points for the CBO when having these discussions, in order to advocate for the adoption of a more current energy code that will benefit their community.
In 2022, the Colorado General Assembly passed HB22-1362, which requires local jurisdictions to adopt the 2021 IECC and the Colorado model electric ready and solar ready code upon updating or adopting any other building code. Jurisdictions can adopt codes on their own schedule, but must meet the state minimum requirements when undergoing any code update.
CEO has put together visual guides of typical energy code adoption and compliance processes. Processes may vary by jurisdiction but these guides give a generic view of the steps necessary to adopt and comply with an energy code, and who is typically involved to do so. Guides include:
2018 to 2021: There were several changes to the 2021 IECC that aim to make buildings nearly 10% more efficient than the previous code. We created a Residential Significant Changes Guide and a Commercial Significant Changes Guide to help jurisdictions and the building industry learn and navigate the changes. We also created Code Comparison tables from the 2009 IECC through the 2021 IECC for Residential and Commercial.
2015 to 2018: There are minimal changes between the 2015 IECC and the 2018 IECC. This document provides an easy-to-follow guide on the significant changes for both the residential and commercial codes. For residential, the largest changes are within lighting, thermal envelope and the Energy Rating Index. Major changes in the commercial code include lighting, additional efficiency package options and thermal envelope.
In 2021, New Buildings Institute (NBI) released its Building Decarbonization Code, version 1.2. Local and state governments can overlay the language in this code with the 2021 IECC to deliver carbon neutral performance for new construction. Version 1.2 is now compatible with ASHRAE 90.1. According to NBI, the Building Decarbonization Code is designed to help states and cities working to mitigate carbon resulting from energy use in the built environment, which accounts for 39% of U.S. emissions. The Code covers both residential and commercial construction and is structured to present both all-electric new construction, and electric-ready options for jurisdictions in different stages of decarbonizing their building stock.
In 2020, NBI also published a white paper, "Energy Code Roadmap for Getting to Zero Outcomes," that describes a process by which jurisdictions can incrementally strengthen building performance standards through codes over time in order to decarbonize the building sector.
SWEEP's report, Building Electrification: How Cities and Counties are Implementing Electrification Policies (July 2020) provides case studies from a dozen local governments on how they adopted code language to advance beneficial electrification.
