formula

Dear all,

When I enter "=A2" for example into a sheet it stayes as =A2 instead of
bringing the data.

Can anyone explain this please?

My guess is that the cell is formatted as text. Go to Format, Cells, Number.
Under Category click General and then click OK. Then retype =A2. Hopefully
this will fix it.

Well done Martin.

Just when you think you have everything sorted - you learn some more!

Cheers
