Using the equal sign in text in a table

While entering text in table, if the text starts with equal sign (=) then the text is automatically interpreted as a formula. To prevent this and treat the text with equal sign as literal text precede the equal sign with single quote (Ex.: ‘=some text). The single quote won’t appear in the table. To enter single quote followed by equal sign precede the single quote with another single quote (Ex. ‘’=some text).
