Default Formula Help

Is there a way to hide a formula within a cell and have the cell show the
final answer?

You would have to apply sheet protection to do that.

Select the *entire* sheet
Goto the menu FormatCellsProtection tab
Uncheck LockedOK
Now, select the cell with the formula that you want to hide
Goto the menu FormatCellsProtection tab
Select HiddenOK

Now you have to apply sheet protection for the formula to be hidden
Goto the menu ToolsProtectionProtect sheet

Depending on what version of Excel you're using there are various options
you can apply when protecting the sheet.
