Hi,
I work in France, with an AZERTY keyboard, and I use Vista Home, french
version, Excel french versions
Excel Help (2002, 2003, 2007) says that to display formulas instead of
values (and back) I must hit CTR+ ` This second character is what I can get
when I hit AltGr+7. But trying to type AltGr + CTRL + 7 or CTRL+AltGr+7 does
not do anything. I tried to switch to a QWERTY keyboard (Alt + Shift for 3
seconds), this ` is now where I had the ² character, but CTRL + ² does no
good. So back to AZERTY...
I know how to make formulas appear (Options...) but a shortcut is much
faster. Can anybody help me ?

Hi,

Put the cuscor on the cell and in the formula bar it will show the formula.
If you are not able to see the formula bar then go to the menubar (tool bar
on the top of the window) Tools|Options|view|click the formula bar check
box|Ok

Now you can place the cursor on the cell (which has a formula in it) and
read / edit the formula in the formula bar.

Hi,
Sorry, I always look at my formulas in the formula bar, but what I need is
the display of all formulas of the sheet simultaneously, which is obtained
by using Options / Display / Formulas. With this option, the width of each
column is twice the ordinary width, Dates are figured by their serial
number, and all cells are left aligned.
I need the shortcut for an AZERTY keyboard

Often it is Ctrl+ whatever is to the left of the 1 (number key)
was that the correct location.

I find a lot more use looking at a sample of the actual formulas in use
right on the spreadsheet. See
Show FORMULA or FORMAT of another cell
