I was building a table showing various formatting strings used in
Excel's custom formatting feature and the results they produce.
In these examples, I am using brackets ([xxx]) to bound the strings
because they contains double quotes.
One such string is [0.00" mph"]. After typing [0.00" ], the [0" ] were
replaced by a tab character and the whole thing indented. It looks
like Word converted my text into a numbered list. If I type some text
and press Enter, I get:
00. xxx
01. xxx
I realize that Word will convert pretty much anything that looks like
a list to a list, but I am puzzled by the behavior with the quote
character. It does the same thing with the single quote.
I am using Word 2007.
