Default value not recognized as a formula

I have a worksheet with a set a cells that will not recognize the values I
enter as formulas. I enter the same type formula as I have throughout the
sheet and the value I enter appears in the cell. I want this particular set
of cells to show the value from another cell on the sheet. The formula is
=B7, but this shows up in the cell instead of being read as a formula. I
tested this by entering =2+2 in the formula bar and the value appeared in the
cell as =2+2.

Thank you,
Michelle Gutierrez

Hi Michelle,
If you are using excel 2007 go to the menu to Formulas and then under
Formula Auditing, click in show formulas
