combine text and calculation (value of 0.000) in the same cell
I am trying to have a calculation and text in the same cell. My calculation
is C12-B11, which currently gives a value of 0.000 ,but may change at some point to something other than zero. When I use =TEXT(C12-B11,".####""T""") I get .T in the cell. When I use format cells, custom .####"T" I get .T in the cell. What I want to see is .0000T Does anybody know how to do this? Thanks, Jodie |

Use
=TEXT(C12-B11,".####") & "T" or Format the cells as ..#### T "Jodie" wrote: I am trying to have a calculation and text in the same cell.

Try it this way:
="The answer is "&TEXT(C12-B11,".0000T") or you could try: ="The answer is "&TEXT(C12-B11,".0000")&"T" Hope this helps.

It should have been
..0000T or .0000 T "Sheeloo" wrote: Use =TEXT(C12-B11,".####") & "T" or Format the cells as .#### T "Jodie" wrote: I am trying to have a calculation and text in the same cell.

The custom format of .0000"T" worked great. And if the value of C12-B11
changes to something other than zero, I get the real value. Thanks! Jodie "Glenn" wrote: Jodie wrote: I am trying to have a calculation and text in the same cell.
