Default can you show formulas in selected cells only of a worksheet?

I am trying to show formulas in certain cells of a worksheet, but not all.
When I use the ctrl+` command it changes all the cells and not just the ones
I've selected. Is it possible to only show formulas in selected cells?

There is no support for this.

In the selected cells, use edit/replace, and change "=" to "x=". When you're
finished viewing/printing them, change "x=" to "="

see the user defined functions GetFormula and GetFormulaD in
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/formula.htm

Not exactly what you asked for but I think it is much better, because
you can place these User Defined Functions anywhere on the sheet
to show representative cells, and you can print the worksheet showing
actual worksheet with some functions shown.
