Special characters

[Gilles Desjardins]

A friend of mine asks, what does this mean when entered in a cell |:: (a
vertical bar and two colons)?
She seems to think that it is a page break. If so how is it used?
I personally don't know.

It's been awhile since I used Lotus 123, but I think that this told Lotus to not
print the row. (Kind of hiding the row.)

It didn't get carried over into Excel.

(No matter what it is, it doesn't mean anything special to excel.)

Thank you for your response Dave,
