Why CHAR(9) does not display a gap/tab?
I want to indent the text in some cells, how can I do that?

Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Difference between two dates
Secret function! Use =DATEDIF(A2,B2,"Y")&" years"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"YM")&" months"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"MD")&" days"
chr32 is space, I got Chr wrong the other day by using char

Better thing to do is Use Text Alignment - Left Indent - Choose 1 or 2. This will format numbers and text.
