    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    For your confusion, A format expression for strings can have one section or two sections separated by a semicolon (;)

     


    "#" is a form of User-defined numeric formats.


    If you still have problems, please point out. Looking forward to your reply.


    Best Regards,
    Henry
