VALUETOTEXT
The VALUETOTEXT function returns text from any specified value.
Syntax
Arguments
value
The value to return as text.
[format]
The format of the returned data. It can be one of two values:
0 - Default. Concise format that is easy to read.
1 - Strict format that includes escape characters and row delimiters.
ARRAYTOTEXT
The ARRAYTOTEXT function returns a text representation of any specified range or array.
Syntax
Arguments
array
The array to return as text.
[format]
The format of the returned data. It can be one of two values:
0 - Default. Concise format that is easy to read.
1 - Strict format that includes escape characters and row delimiters.
Note
When the input value is an error, such as #VALUE! or #DIV/0!, both VALUETOTEXT and ARRAYTOTEXT return the error text itself instead of returning an error. This differs from the TEXT function, which returns an error for error values.
