##### displaying in Excel
When you get a series of hash symbols (####) appearing in some of your cells in a spreadsheet, this can make you think that you've make some kind of mistake.
This is a common misconception - what this actually means is that the cell is not wide enough to fully display the content of the cell.
All you need to do to see what is actually in the cell is to widen the column that the cell is in.
