Default Green flag in cell

These are typically in the top left, and indicate the cell appears to have a
number in it, but it's being treated as text. There should also be a yellow
diamond with an exclamation point to the left. Clcik on this and select
converr to number to get rid of the flag.

Hi

Sometimes while using Excel 2003 I find that the cell is marked with a
little green flag, on the bottom lefthand corner of the cell, much like the
red flag that indicates a comment. Can anyone explain to me what this is and
what is its purpose?

Many thanks
