MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / November 2006what do these brackets around a formula mean {formula} ?
{=+SUM(IF($F$3:$F$83=$A87;$AD$3:$AD$83;0))*B87/1.25} those brackets disappear automaticly once i click the formula bar if i copy formula without those brackets the return is '#value' ! It means that it is an array formula, a formula that works on an array (range) of cells. The braces are inserted by Excel if, after typing the formula, you commit it with Ctrl-Shift-Enter rather than just Enter, you do not type them. When updating the formula, it should again be array-entered. -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace xxxx in the email address with gmail if mailing direct) > {=+SUM(IF($F$3:$F$83=$A87;$AD$3:$AD$83;0))*B87/1.25} > those brackets disappear automaticly once i click the formula bar > if i copy formula without those brackets the return is '#value' !
