Cell A4, contains a formula
```
=Sum(A1:B3)+A3/B2
```
.
How to display the formula in cell A6 for this formula please ?
That is =Sum(A1:B3)+A3/B2
I know Control + ~ can view the formula in a spreadsheet.
But that is view only. Another control + ~ will turn back to normal.
I want to display the formula in cell.

Solution

Create a personalized macro function in a new module :

Function DisplayFormula(cel As Range) 
        DisplayFormula = cel.Formula & "" 
End Function

and after use this new function to the column B cells.
For example, if you want to display the A2 formula in B2, you have to write in B2 the following formula :

=DisplayFormula(A2)
