I need to have only the values show in a spreadsheet.
 
I am helping a user add "----" to a blank cell. They want it so that it
centers under the number above it. The spreadsheet keeps showing the formula
"=d47=c34". I want to save it as a new document and have only the values
appear (not sure how it was created).

Please advise.

Thank you.

First of all, what has that formula to do with adding "----" to a blank cell?

Second of all, if your formula(s) are showing and not values, could be that
you have Formula View enabled.

Hit CTRL + `(backquote above TAB key) to toggle formula view on/off.

If not in formula view, perhaps the cell is formatted as text.

Re-format as General and hit F2 and <ENTER.

To change all formulas to values, select the cells and Copy then(in place)
Paste SpecialValuesOKEsc.
