Hello!

I've changed an option somewhere in Excel and the handy Syntax help
that used to appear when I was creating a formula doesn't pop up
anymore. Does anyone know how to re-enable this?

For example, when I started typing an IF Statement it would display
things like

=IF(logical_test, value_if_true, value_if_false) and highlight the
segment that I was working on.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
