show text instead of hash marks

When I enter text into excel, I push enter and it show up as one line of hash
marks.

How can I change this back to the original text?

Thanks Pecoflyer, but that didn't work. I figured out that if right click
and go into "format cells" and change the category to "General" under the
"Number" tab it converts it all back into text.

Cheers
