Maybe it's a difference between the different language settings, or the
operating system. I'm using LO Version 3.6.6.2 (Build ID: f969faf) on
Windows 7 64-bit, and my language setting is USA English.
First I copied the formula from below, including the curly brackets, and
pasted it into calc. It behaved as a string, not a formula.
Next, I copied it again, and then changed the S31 to S32. Still behaved
as a string.
Third, I typed the formula in from scratch. Still behaved as a string.
Fourth, I grabbed the handle on the bottom right corner of the cell and
dragged down to copy. Still a string.
But about this time, I noticed that the first two cells had blank spaces
after the end of the entry. the third and forth cells (the one I had
typed from scratch, and the copy made by dragging down from that one)
didn't.
Finally, I clicked into the fourth cell to change S31 to S32. When I did
so, the curly brackets disappeared, the cell references took on colors,
and the lines appeared around the cells included in the arrays. BUT -
when I hit ENTER, the text became a string again, complete with the
curly brackets that had disappeared while I was editing it.
Maybe if I knew something about the kind of math represented by these
functions, I'd have a better clue. But I know nothing about that level
of math.

Thanks for the reply, please click into the cell and change S31 to
S32. Do the contents change into a formula or stay as text.

Greetings from Russia!
I opened LibreOffice Calc (4.0.3) fnd simply copy-pasted the following:
{=MMULT(MINVERSE(A14:R31),S14:S31)}
into an empty cell on a empty book.
It is displaying as text, not calculating a formula.What am I d oing
wrong?

Hi.
I want to enter {=MMULT(MINVERSE(A14:R31),S14:S31)} in a cell and to
display this as the text "{=MMULT(MINVERSE(A14:R31),S14:S31)}" (without
the "" quotes). Formatting the cell as text doesn't help. I thought
once
you could prepend with a ' to define the characters following as left
aligned text but not show the '. This does not seem to work any more,
there must be a simple solution I am missing.
Cheers, steve
