You can do it by pressing and holding the Ctrl key and then pressing the ` key, which is beside the 1 key. (Ctrl + `). You can also do it by going to the Tools menu, picking Options, then View and clicking the tick box beside Formulas.
Great direction and step-by-step process!
I also found that we can obtain a dialog listing of ALL the formulas in the worksheet by using the following steps (within Excel 2010);
You can display formulas by using the keyboard Shortcut CTRL + ` in Excel. (The ` Grave Accent key is below the ESC Key on the upper left side of most keyboards.)
Formulas in the cells in the worksheet.
An underlying formula in Excel is used in a spreadsheet to do something different than the formula does. An underlying formula can be used to remove values or display numbers.

A formula must begin with an equals sign (=).

There is no simple answer to that, as each worksheet you will create is going to be different. An application like Excel is very versatile and can be used for all sorts of things. You will start with a blank worksheet. From there, you will need to know what the worksheet you are creating is going to be for, like sales figures for products for example. You will need to know how to use Excel to actually lay out the data, format it and put in whatever formulas you need. What those formulas will be will depend on the worksheet, but typically you would be using functions like the SUM function a lot for example.

Ctrl and the ` key will show or hide formulas. The `is the apostrophe key, not the single quote key.
Formulas are instructions to the computer to do something, like a calculation. Numbers or text entered into a worksheet are fixed. They don't do anything as such. They can be used by formulas. All formulas begin with the equals sign. They may use functions. For text or numbers, there is just text or numbers in the cells.
hard-coding values because it allows for easier updates and maintenance of the worksheet. By using cell references, you can change the value of a single cell and have that update reflected throughout the worksheet, improving efficiency and accuracy. Additionally, cell references make formulas more flexible and dynamic, accommodating changes in data without the need to rewrite formulas.
