"--" operator in a formula
I tried looking under Excel's help, but it did not produce any results.
In another question, I was given a SUMPRODUCT formula which had "--" < those 2 characters before my range. Can someone tell me what the significance of the characters in the formula are? Or point me to a website that explains? I feel much more comfortable when I completely understand the formula I am writing. Thank you! |
