All Implemented Interfaces:
ValueEnum, Serializable, Comparable<ForceTextApproach>, Constable

public enum ForceTextApproach extends Enum<ForceTextApproach> implements ValueEnum
Approach to force a text value to be interpreted as text rather than parsed as a date, time or other structured types, as can happen with Microsoft Excel. For background information, see ExcelPasting.
  • Enum Constant Details

    • LEADINGSPACE

      public static final ForceTextApproach LEADINGSPACE
      a leading space character is added

      If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "leadingSpace".

    • FORMULA

      public static final ForceTextApproach FORMULA
      text value is turned into a trivial Excel formula (eg "car" becomes ="car"). In Excel, this renders just the value "car" but editing the cell reveals the formula.

      If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "formula".
