Try clicking View/Formula Bar on Excel's menu bar to see if that restores
it.

I accidentally dragged the formula bar up to the region occupied by the
standard toolbar and the formula bar disappeared. I have checked and
unchecked in views and preferences, restarted Excel, rebooted the
computer,
did all these things repeatedly in different orders. Can't get the formula
bar back.
