    Question how can I check if there is text written in a cell?

    Hi!

    I would like to do an evaluation in a cell if there is text written in it, if not it will be a decimal number instead.

    thanks for answeres!

    Hi Hendersson,

    Perhaps:

    =IF(ISNUMBER(A1),"Number","Not Number")

    Press CTRL & A on your keyboard - highlights everything in the worksheet
    no matter what color for anything is used.
