    Hide text but NOT number in cell

    How do I hide text from displaying in cell but not the resulting number from the sum?

    ="structure,doors,windows:""$"&(SUM(800+900+90))

    Thank you for your help.

    Why is the text there at all if you don't want to show it?

    I want to know what each figure was for. For example. the 800 is for structure, 900 is for doors, etc. I can see it when I click on it in the future.

    No, you need to use the Thread Tools at the top to mark it as solved - it's a drop-down option just above the opening post. I have done it for you as a courtesy.

    By the way, here's another way of dong it:

    =(SUM(800+900+90))+N("structure,doors,windows")
