bool HasQuotePrefix { get; }
ReadOnly Property HasQuotePrefix As Boolean
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Boolean |
true , if the cell value contains a leading quote; otherwise, false.
|
Use the HasQuotePrefix property to obtain cells with a single quote prefix. A leading quote before a cell value indicates that this value should be interpreted as a single text without further conversion to any other type. Thus, a number, date or formula entered with a leading single quote is treated as a text value and cannot be used in calculations.
Note that the Cell.DisplayText and CellValue.TextValue properties return the string value without a leading quote.
