Prompt Cell (User-Defined Cells Section)

  • Article

Specifies a descriptive prompt or comment for the user-defined cell. The application automatically encloses the prompt text in quotation marks (" ") to indicate that it is a text string. If you type an equal sign (=) and omit the quotation marks, you can enter a formula in this cell that the application evaluates.
