Hi @annahorodecka ,

 

Click on one of the columns on your tables under Fields Pane, the Column Tools section appears.

Hi, I am on version: 2.123.742.0 64-bit. I came across a similar instance. However, after clicking on the column name, I found the Formatting tab under the "Column Tools" ribbon. I hope it helps.

I do not have the icon on the left. I am still lost on how to format the numbers.

I figured out a solution

 

I made a new measure and using the previous measure this unlock the measure setting for me to format correctly.

Hi @annahorodecka ,

 

You must select a visualization to show the Format tab.

@annahorodecka ,

I think you will get those options once you select something.  Like visual, table or column
