**How to show formula in Excel cells instead of value?**<\/p>\n

Excel is a powerful tool for organizing and analyzing data, but sometimes we need to display the actual formula in a cell rather than the calculated value. This can be useful for understanding and auditing complex calculations. Fortunately, Excel provides a simple solution to show formulas instead of values in cells. In this article, we will walk you through the steps to achieve this.<\/p>\n

1. Open your Excel spreadsheet.
\n2. Select the cells in which you want to show the formulas.
\n3. Press the **Ctrl + `** keys simultaneously. This will toggle the display between formulas and values.
\n4. Your selected cells will now show the formulas instead of their calculated values.<\/p>\n

It’s important to note that this method only affects the display of the cell contents; it does not change the actual formulas or their results. If you need to edit the formula, simply double-click on the cell and make the necessary changes.<\/p>\n
