The same thing as you type into the cell will appear in the formula bar as you type. Once you've entered something into a cell, the cell may show a number result rather than what you type in, if it is a formula.

Simply type in the cell like: =A3+C6 You can also click on a cell as you are typing the formula and it will be included in the formula.
You can press the Delete key on your keyboard. If you are typing something, but have not completed and pressed enter, you can click on the X on the Formula bar that appears when you are typing. That will clear the new content and leave the cell as it was before you started entering something.
To tell Excel that you are typing a formula, start by typing an equal sign "=" in the cell where you want the formula. This signals to Excel that you are entering a calculation or function. You can then proceed to input the formula or function you want to use in that cell.
#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.#NAME? appears in the cell.

The equal sign =
You can click and drag from one cell along a row, down a column, or to the opposite corner of a rectangle to select with a mouse. When doing a formula you can select cells in that way after you start typing a formula. So to add all the values in the cells from A2 to A15, you could type: =SUM( Then you could either type the cell range, or select the range with the mouse. The completed formula would be as follows no matter which way you do it: =SUM(A2:A15)
As you are typing in the actual cell reference, press the F4 key and it will change it between the 4 available settings. So if your cell is C10, when you press F4 immediately after typing it, it will become: $C$10 then C$10 then $C10 and then back to C10. When you have it the way you want it, continue typing your formula or just press return if the formula is finished.
After you select the cell, just start typing your formula. Always start a formula with the = sign. [=sum(a1:a5)]
You can type it while in Edit mode, or click on the cell while typing your formula, which can referred to as point mode.
