How can I show the formulas within each cell?

Alternate between showing cell values and cell formulas in Excel

When reviewing or troubleshooting an Excel spreadsheet, it can be useful to show the formulas within each cell, rather than the formula results. To toggle between the formula and the formula results, hold down control and press ` (single left quotation mark - above tab). This also allows you to print a worksheet with all the formulas visible.
