Hi guys I guess I should have paid more attention to what y’all were saying about the insertion point. Let me tell you a simple thing that it took me an hour to figure out. If you are in Numbers, and you want to type a formula yourself instead of using the menu, after you type the equals sign, be sure and press the right arrow key first. If you don’t, your numbers will changed to automatic and you will hear what you just typed instead of your formula results. What’s weird is that if you had typed cell co-ordinates within parentheses, sometimes it is considered a cell. At first I thought this was a unfortunate change to Numbers, until something told me to check the cursor position by moving the arrow keys. When I did that, my formula worked. So, don’t do like me and not pay attention when your fellow blind warn you about something like this.
