Actinic stores it's prices in pennies so you need to multiple your prices by 100 before importing them.

I thought it would be easy converting bu it is not for example
when I change 12.95 to the next highest I get 13 no 1300
this sucks

Not sure what "when I change" means.

Here's what I'd do.

Create a new column in Excel. Set its top cell to have a formula of 100 times your decimal price top cell. Duplicate that formula for the entire column. Check that the values look sensible. Use that column for the import price field.

Excel has plenty of built-in help if you don't know how to do these basic things.

Hope this helps

All I want to do is chang all 37800 products prices with the 2 zero at the end example

37.00 would be 3700
