Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel Each time I start a new spreadsheet, I have to set the currency to $, otherwise there is no particular currency selected.

Previous posters have suggested that this problem may be resolved by setting a default currency in System Preferences. However, I've been unable to find any such option in System Preferences.

Any help/guidance would be appreciated.
