I would like to suggest a change/addition to the way formulas are displayed
when writing them in an excel workbook (not VBA). When writing formulas the traditional way, it can get quite overwhelming when trying to next many logical/conditional statemetns in one formula and keep track of which parenthesis closes which function. Instead of everything thing being written on one line (ie "=if(a2=a3,a4,if(a2a3,a5,ifa2<a3,a6,"")))" ) that each new line of logic should drop down a line in the display (much like if you were writing an 'if' statement in c++ or the like) so that it is easier to discern which logical statement you are working on when it is complex (much more so than this simple example). In short, there should be a line break in the display of the formula while working with it after each 'if' in the example above. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
