Default Where do I find the option to change number format in a Word doc.

Are you perhaps confusing Word with Excel? Word has never had that
capability from a right-click option. You can use a formatting switch if the
number is in a field. Otherwise, you basically get what you type. (I suppose
you might have had an add-in that provided numeric formatting, but I'm not
familiar with any such add-in.)

I simply want numbers in a particular document to display with 2 decimal
places. But I can't find this function anywhere. Used to be able to right
click to get this kind of function but no more.
