Aspose.Cells Cloud Web API - Convert text

Indicates converting the numbers stored as text into the correct number format, replacing unwanted characters and line breaks with the desired characters, and converting accented characters to their equivalent characters without accents.

Overview

Convert numbers-as-text, strip junk, swap accents—one call, zero formulas.

  • Convert numbers stored as text to numbers: Transform numeric data stored as text to numbers, ensuring accurate calculations and proper data representation.
  • Replace specific characters: Replace all occurrences of specified characters in all the selected cells at once to standardize your information.
  • Convert line breaks to space, comma or semicolon: Improve the readability of your sheets by converting line breaks to space, comma, or semicolon, creating a more organized and visually appealing presentation.
  • Replace accented characters: If your data is in different languages, you have the option to swap accented characters like “é” or “ü” with their non-accented counterparts. This enhances consistency and clarity in your text.
