Question

Writing numeric value in Sheet cell using Excel Basic


Badge +8

Hallo,

I’ve noticed that there’s a strange behaviour of a saved numeric values written in Excel shhet using Excel Basic package, causing the written cells marked with “Numeric value stored as an text”  error.

Marked values in sheet

There’s a possibility to turn of the notification’s, buth the values are still left alignment, and there;s no aggregation of values, Only if you click twice on a specific cell it becomes proper numeric vale like below:

Corrected values

How to deal with that kind of behaviour?

greeting, Michal

Hallo @Padmakumar, thanks for reaction,

the procedure You’ve mentioned turns off the notifications, but the values are still bot recongnized as numeric, only double clicking sets them as proper numeric value,

what i noticed, that this issue doesn’t occur when using Excel Advantage Package,

@Padmakumar You mean downgrading? I use the recent version for AAe 360 v.24 release On-Prem.

I’ll try with lower package versions then
