I wrote yesterday, about a operation that i need to do on excel. Richards solve part of the problem, but not entirely

I have colums with characters and number. He told that i have to go to format:cell:custom and put this code \"@\"

It works perfect in text , but in numbers it didn´t put the "
theres a way change it ?

For example i have this:

asd 1232 jfr
ser 2334 fdr

when i made the process mentioned before it changes to

"asd" 1232 "jfr"
"ser" 2334 "fdr"

why numbers can add the " theres another code to do it ? i try to change the numbers to text but it doesn´t work, please any suggestion ?
