In the process of using Excel, sometimes after using a function in Excel, the result is not displayed but the formula is displayed.
When using the vlookup function as below , only the formula is displayed but not the result.
How should we deal with this situation?
Next, several reasons for this situation and corresponding solutions are introduced.
1. If "Show formula" is selected in the formula option, the cell where the function is located will not display the result but only the formula. At this time, we only need to cancel the "display formula".
2. If the format of the cell where the function is located is text format, the cell where the function is located will not display the result but only the formula. At this point, we need to change the format of the cell where the function is located to regular or numeric format, and click F2 or click the formula bar, and then click Enter.
3. If you accidentally enter a space before the equal sign "=" when entering the formula, the cell content will be forcibly converted into text. At this time, we delete the space in front of "=" , and then press the Enter key.
4. If in the file options, Options→Advanced→Display options of this worksheet: Display formulas in cells instead of their calculation results, if it is checked, it will cause the cell where the function is located to not display the result but only the formula. At this time, we only need to uncheck this option.
The above are several reasons why the function does not display the result but only the formula in Excel and the corresponding solutions.
In addition, add another formula:
FORMULATEXT function: returns the formula as a string.
=FORMULATEXT(对单元格或单元格区域的引用)
