title: How to convert the actual excel formula (not the result) to a text string
body: <p>I have been searching all over for a solution and I couldn't find one.</p>
  
  <p>Let's say I type into cell A1: =if(A2>1,1,0) </p>
  
  <p>Excel will interpret that and either return 1 or 0.</p>
  
  <p>However, what I would like to do is literally convert that formula into the string: '=if(A2>1,1,0)' </p>
  
  <p>If you press Ctrl+~ into Excel, you will see all the formulas. Basically what I want to do, in conclusion, is take all those formulas and make them strings.</p>
  
  <p>(The purpose, if you care, is to compare these strings with another workbook to make sure I didn't delete anything)</p>
