format decimals displayed based on results

[Guest]

Is there a way to format a cell to vary the decimals displayed based on the
results it is showing?
Ex: if the value is <100 show 4 decimal places, if it is over 100 but
less than 1000, show 2 decimals, and over 1000 show no decimals.

Use a format of

[>=1000]#,##0;[>=100]#,##0.00;#,##0.0000

With a helper column this gets close to your needs
=ROUND(A1,5-LOG(A1))
but it show 1 decimal when A1 > 1000

Use a format of

[>=1000]#,##0;[>=100]#,##0.00;#,##0.0000
