Converting 'General' formatted cells to Text formatted cell using.
How do I send data from a 'General' formatted cell to a 'text' formatted
cell? The end result required is a cell in 'text' format displaying the sent data. I wish to use a formula to do this, instead of using right-click, format cells, select 'Text' as format. |

Assuming the number 1234.78 in A1 formatted as General. In B1 enter =TEXT(A1,"0.00") BTW....you can't "send" data from one cell to another using a formula. You can only return a value into a cell which has the formula.
