Is there some way to show the formulas used and their current values
in a report?
Thanks

Ctrl-` (grave) will toggle between displaying formulas and their
values. It's the character next to the number 1 on most US keyboards.

HTH,

I do not want to toggle between showing and hiding the formulas. I
want the formulas to be on the printed report so readers know how a
column was calculated.
Thanks

Gotcha, go to Tools>Options>View tab, check box next to "Formulas"

From John Walkenbach's storehouse of macros.

Sub ListFormulas()
'from John Walkenbach
Dim FormulaCells As Range, cell As Range
Dim FormulaSheet As Worksheet
Dim Row As Integer
Dim ws As Worksheet
   '   Create a Range object for all formula cells
   On Error Resume Next
   Set FormulaCells = Range("A1").SpecialCells(xlFormulas, 23)

   '   Exit if no formulas are found
   If FormulaCells Is Nothing Then
       MsgBox "No Formulas."
       Exit Sub
   End If

   '   Add a new worksheet
   Application.ScreenUpdating = False
   Set FormulaSheet = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
   FormulaSheet.Name = "Formulas in " & FormulaCells.Parent.Name

   '   Set up the column headings
   With FormulaSheet
       Range("A1") = "Address"
       Range("B1") = "Formula"
       Range("C1") = "Value"
       Range("A1:C1").Font.Bold = True
   End With

   '   Process each formula
   Row = 2
   For Each cell In FormulaCells
       Application.StatusBar = Format((Row - 1) / FormulaCells.Count, "0%")
       With FormulaSheet
           Cells(Row, 1) = cell.Address _
                   (RowAbsolute:=False, ColumnAbsolute:=False)
           Cells(Row, 2) = " " & cell.Formula
           Cells(Row, 3) = cell.Value
           Row = Row + 1
       End With
   Next cell

   '   Adjust column widths
   FormulaSheet.Columns("A:C").Cells.WrapText = True        ''AutoFit
   Application.StatusBar = False
End Sub
