Excel formulas become cell contents
I am experiencing a problem in Excel. When I enter a formula (any formula)
in certain cells the formula remains visible in the cell as the cell content. However if I enter the same formula in another part of the spreadsheet the formula behaves the way it is suppose to...invisible except for the results of the formula. |

I guess that your cell is formatted as text. Reformat the cell as General,
then re-enter the formula, either by typing it in again or by F2, enter. -- David Biddulph DJLT wrote: I am experiencing a problem in Excel.
