<div class="moz-cite-prefix">What you see is the difference between
the use of the "straight" apostrophe at the beginning of a cell's
content (which can be used to force it to be displayed "as is"
instead of understood as a formula or a number) and an autocorrect
rule (replacing a "straight" apostrophe by the corresponding
locale's typographic apostrophe or quotation mark).</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Feel free to turn the autocorrect rule
off in Tools > AutoCorrect options > Localized options >

Dear developer, the following error happens at least in the German
/Swiss German language.<br>
Observations :<br>
- when i type an apostrophe in an empty excel field, it appears an
apostrophe = correct<br>
<br>
- when i write any word in an empty excel field, and i add an
apostrophe,<br>
then it appears NOT an apostrophe, but a ">" at the end of
the word.<br>
<br>
- when i write any word in an empty excel field, and i add an
empty space and an apostrophe,<br>
then it appears NOT an apostrophe, but a "<" at the end of
the word.<br>
<br>
Note : in the German language we often add an apostrophe followed
by a letter "s", at genitives.<br>
