Thread: When inserting a simple "Sum" formula all I get is the formula.

I need to see the calculation and not the formula. I've used this process for
years and have never had problems.

goto tools=options=view and make sure formulas are not ticked off

1) Make sure the cell is not formatted Text; if so, format it General then
open the cell (F2 or double click) then Enter.
2) Make sure you do not have View Formulas on: hold CTRL+` (the key to left
of 1 on top row of so-called typewriter keys)
If nothing works: enter some simple formula { =A1+A2 } somewhere and tell us
what results
best wishes
