Hi bentleypiano,
If you mean printing the formula used in another cell, see

Show FORMULA or FORMAT of another cell
I prefer to show the formula in use for documentation purposes,
within the actual spreadsheet they are active in, which I think is the best choice.

If not familiar with installing a User Defined Function see
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm

use is similar to Excels own functions
=GetFormula(B4)
or if installed in a different workbook.
=personal.xls!GetFormula(B4)
