§ Remarks
- If value is or refers to text, T returns value. If value does not refer to text, T returns "" (empty text).
- You do not generally need to use the T function in a formula because Microsoft Excel automatically converts values as necessary. This function is provided for compatibility with other spreadsheet programs.
