Copy cell data as formatted
I was given a spreadsheet with a numeric column that should have been
formatted as text. The column should be a 3 character ID. The ID's that happen to have all numeric characters are formatted wrong. For example "030" shows up as 30. I know that I can format the cell to display it correctly, but I really want the column to have the correct data. So my question is - Can I format the column to show 030, create a new colunm that is formatted as text and then copy the DISPLAYED value to my new column? I want to copy and paste 030 not 30. I know this would be a simple macro, but I was wondering if it was possible to accomplish without VBA. |
