Cells have a format property, inherited from the range class, that determines how the cell’s data is parsed and displayed. By default, a new cell’s format is set to automatic, and will attempt to interpret the inserted data into the correct format. Set the format property if the data, such as a numeric value, can be interpreted to be used by more than one format, otherwise leave the format property set to the default of automatic.
The following script will create a small table displaying the various available cell formats:
settheseFormatsto {automatic, checkbox, currency, date and time, fraction, number, percent, pop up menu, scientific, slider, stepper, text, duration, rating, numeral system}
