You either have Formula View set to on or your cell with the formula is
formatted as text.

1. Hit CTRL + `(backquote above TAB key) to toggle view formulas off.

2. Format the formula cell as General then hit F2 then ENTER key.

Hi,

I am having trouble getting the concatenate function to
work. There are five columns of data I am trying to
combine which include Address1, Address2, City, State and
Zip. I have tried changing to formats from general to
text but they will not concatenate. Whenever I use the
function wizard, it simply says =concatenate
(a2,b2,c2,d2,d2) rather than combining my fields. Is
there setting I need to adjust?

Thanks,

Chuck
