I wrote a macro to change format of cell by adding pre-fix "19V". The format change under the hood but the value I see only change after I go to the cell and press Enter.
How to automatically change the visual value as well?

Code:
Selection.NumberFormat = """19V""@"

Eg: 12345 => 19V12345 (visual only, the actual value is still 12345)
