Default insert bar in cell

I opened your attachment. That is exactly what I got as a result. What I
would like is an actual bar like a bar chart shows.

Thank you. I copied the formula and pasted it in B1. Just the formula
appears. I copied from = to the ).
Could I do this through a FUNCTION? Do I need to place something in B1
before or after your formula?
Before I sent this question I did a bar chart and was able to eliminate
information and decrease the bar to the cell, but that was a lot of work. I
figured there would be a simpler to the point process.

Without creating a chart I would like to place a bar in a cell which reflects
the percentage of another cell.
If I enter 45% in cell A1, how could I get a bar to reflect 45% in cell B1
without inserting a bar chart.
I just want to see cell B1 45% filled.
