--- Comment #8 from Mark B <markbrd...@tiscali.co.uk> 2012-02-07 12:32:25 UTC --- The asterisk character is used to indicate that the contents of the cell should be padded to length - that is should fill the cell completely. The pad character is the character that follows the asterisk in the formatting string. Take a look here http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/number-format-codes-HP005198679.aspx - under the Text and Spacing heading there is a sub-heading 'Repeating Characters', expand this and you should see an explanation of how the asterisk is used. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@poi.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@poi.apache.org
