Default convert column from numbers to text

I have a column of about 600 numbers I want to convert to text (with the
little green triangle)...I "think" I have done it...but in my new column I
have to open each cell and then close it before the triangle appears ?
Is this ok...or should the triangle appear automatically...and if so...how
to do this?

Also...a short example of how to convert a column form numbers to text would
be appreciated...in case I have to start over ?
Excel 2003

Thanks, Tim R
