I'm using Excel 2007 Beta 2. With my first experience with Office 2007 at my
new job on the first day, I somehow managed to hide the formula bar. The new
interface is so overwhelming and none of my help files work. I'm embarrassed
to admit that I've already wasted about 5 hours over the course of a few
weeks trying to get it back. Can someone help me get this formula bar to
show up again? Thank you.

Open the View tab on the ribbon
Look in the second 'chunk' ( I think the term is 'group' ) for a box
labelled Formula Bar; click to select
best wishes

Wham! Just like that it's back! Thank you very much. I must have
overlooked that checkbox a hundred times. Thanks Bernard.
