Converting formulas to values
If it's just one cell, you can format the cell as text (in Excel) and paste into
the formula bar. If it's multiple cells, maybe you could format the cells as text and paste special|text. I didn't test this.

Converting formulas to values
Usually helps if you pre-format the cells in Excel to Text format before the
paste. Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Thu, 10 Jul 2008 09:28:01 -0700, Byron720 wrote: I have this part # in a Word table: -TK85-AX I try to copy it to an Excel file but I get a #NAME? error and on the fomula bar appears like =-TK85-AX What should I do? |
