My problem is editing inside a cell that contains a nested if formula.
After editing the cell and pressing return the cell places the 'formula' and
not the 'value resulting from the formula' in the cell.  I keep checking if
it is protected but to no avail.  Does anyone have any thioughts on this?
Thanks in advance.

Try changing the format of the cell to Number (or anything but Text).
(Format|Cells|Number tab)

Then select that cell, hit F2 and enter (to reenter the formula).
