Default # in Function

Top of the morning.
The below function inserts a space between the last 2 digits of a number.

6789 in a1 becomes 678 9 and aligns on the left of the cell (text).
=TEXT(A1,"#"" ""0")

Now for the dumb question, what does the "#" do and where could I find this
tidbit of information?

Thanks.

Hello,

Open Excel help, go to answer wizard, type "number format codes",
select that and go to "Decimal places, spaces, colors, and conditions".
