That's is the problem. In an a Spreadsheet with undreds of records, one text
value algined to the right (impossible to see with naked eye) will produce an
error, and the user will not know until he loose his job.

I like fdservices suggestion a lot... it's simple and informative. <<1 +
"1,000,000" = 1 [Watch out, the "1,000,000" is text in the preceding formula -
Is that what you really meant?]>>

clemare
BTW How many votes we need to get fix this error? My company is considering
seriously to buy MS Office licences because of this error.
