Default How does Excel calculate Multiple R when doing multiple regression

I am trying to determine how Excel calculates the statistic Multiple R (the
first statistic listed in the Regression Statistics box) when one is doing
multiple regression. I know that when doing simple regression, this number
is just the correlation coefficient. But I'm not quite sure what is being
calculated when doing multiple regression.
