Default what is single quotation mark left side of cell for

The single quote mark you see in the formula bar denotes the cell is formatted
as text.

The quote mark should not be showing up in the cell or when printing out.

If you have a quote mark showing in the cell, you have entered it by adding two
quote marks and you should two in the formula bar.
