As a programmer who works with Excel and VBA for some projects, I encoutered
the use of copying long Excel-formule to a text editor to extract the way the
formula is composed. It would be great if the formula is shown in a more
legible way when the edit mode is selected: show the formula in a way the
Equation Editor lets users create them. Once the formula is submitted to
Excel for calculation, the old-style one-line display of the formula could be
restored. This would speed up working with formulae in Excel.
