Text Functions

Text formulas can be used to join items together using the ampersand and extract partial text using functions like LEFT, RIGHT, MID. Various text functions allow manipulating text, including converting case, counting characters, finding/replacing text, and trimming spaces. Math operations on text numbers will convert them to numbers and remove extra spaces.
