On Excel why putting a formula with the contents
=""
sometimes make the replacement for an empty string
and sometimes it places literally that text in the cell.
Note: every cell of the worksheet is in the text format.
It depends on the order in which you format the cell as text.
If the cell is not formatted as text, your formula will read =”” and the cell will be blank.
If the cell is formatted as text, your formula will read =”” and the cell will read =””
If you had the cell NOT formatted as text (number or general), entered =”” and THEN formatted the cell as text, your formula will read =”” and the cell will be blank.
