Now I can't get the Text Format to stick in a cell
Hello,
Recently I had a problem getting Excel to recognize as formula as such when the cell had been formatted as text before the formula was entered. Now, I can't get the Text Format to stick! I set the cell(s) to text. The copy a string of digits from a web page, paste it into the cell and the format changes to General!!! I go ahead and reset the cell to text but I why should I have to do this? It truly seems as though the details are not being looked at! Sheesh! |
