TEXT Formula Syntax

=TEXT(1234.567, "$#,##0.00")

Example Use Case

Converting a number to text with a specified format

Understanding the TEXT Formula

The TEXT function in Excel converts a number to text using a specified format, giving you control over appearance. It's a formatting tool for displaying values—like dates, currencies, or percentages—as styled text.

TEXT(1234.567, "$#,##0.00") returns '$1,234.57', applying currency formatting with commas and two decimals. It takes a value and format_text, turning numbers into formatted strings for display or concatenation.

Why Use TEXT?

TEXT enhances readability—think custom reports or combined strings. Its formatting power handles dates, times, and numbers, creating text outputs with specific styles regardless of cell formatting.

Example with Sample Data

Value, Format	Formula	Result
1234.567, "$#,##0.00"	=TEXT(1234.567, "$#,##0.00")	$1,234.57
42965, "mmmm d, yyyy"	=TEXT(42965, "mmmm d, yyyy")	February 28, 2018
0.85, "0%"	=TEXT(0.85, "0%")	85%

TEXT formats outputs: '$1,234.57', 'February 28, 2018'. It's a number stylist.
