Entering symbols +, -, = as text instead of as functions
I need to be able to enter the symbols + - = as text in a column to
indicate gain, loss, and neutral. How do I ensure they are treated as text and not functions? |

Format the cell as text before entering the symbol, or precede the symbol
with an apostrophe (which will not show in the cell). -- Kind regards, Niek Otten Microsoft MVP - Excel "Ellen" wrote in message ... I need to be able to enter the symbols + - = as text in a column to indicate gain, loss, and neutral. How do I ensure they are treated as text and not functions? |
