Thanks for the advice.

Unfortunately, it was not the "Show Formula" option, as when I tried this
following your advice, I got a different result to that which occurred. The
formula bar display above the worksheet shows the formula when I toggle in both
instances, regardless of the option chosen, whereas on the erroneous worksheet,
the formula bar display showed the value.

The "Menu>Data>Calculate>Formula to value" looks promising, as when I tried
this it had the same result, but it only applied it to the single cell in which
I was working, not to every cell in the workbook. I checked the setting on a
cell which should have had a formula, but which I had not corrected by copying
the formula into, and the setting was applied, but how to the complete
workbook, and not a single cell as per my test? I do not believe that it was
applied by me during input, as I had no reason to modify any of the settings,
and do not remember doing so. Why isn't a toggle available to unset this
option?

Fortunately, I was able to recover all the formulae from the previous year's
workbook, as I copy and modify this workbook each year, but it was a
time-consuming exercise.

Hopefully, you may be able to solve this mystery and apply a fix.
