Leading Zero & Apostrophe - Help
When entering 07 I put an apostrophe in front to ensure the leading zero
stayed in place. For some reason I can't do this now when I put an apostrophe in front in makes no difference, so I get 7. To my knowledge nothing has changed How do I turn it back on? Please don't advise me to Right Click Format Cells, I want to be able to use the apostrophe '07 I am using Excel 2003 on Windows XP Thanks in advance |
