Hi, When focus is on a specific cell and you are entering data into that cell, you are actually entering the data into the Formula field. This is normal Spreadsheet behaviour. The entry field is actually separate from the cell itself. This is how you can know both the result of a given formula and the formula itself for each cell.
I'm not sure what you're asking for the second question. Are you trying to put all three entries from columns 7, 8 and 10 into 14? Are you wanting some function to be performed? Sorry, I'm not getting it. Later... Tim Kilburn Fort McMurray, AB Canada On 2013-10-08, at 9:28 AM, Alex Hall <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi again, and sorry for all the questions about Numbers.
