Keyboard Formatting of a Cell
In another spreadsheet program long ago, it was possible to type an
apostrophe preceding text that is being entered into a numbers-formatted cell, the the text was treated as text. For example, in Excel 2003, if I type "04/04/08" in a General cell, Excel converts the entry to "4/4/2008". If I typed "'04/04/08" (an apostrophe precedes the numbers and slashes), the information was entered as text as if the cell were separately formatted for text. Is there is similar capability in Excel? |
