Quick answer
Check whether Show Formulas is enabled. This view deliberately displays formula text so calculations can be inspected.
Understand the issue
Compare several formula cells. If all of them switch together, the display setting is a likely cause. If only one cell shows literal text, inspect that cell separately rather than changing workbook calculation options blindly.
Step-by-step checks
- Open the Formulas tab.
- Toggle Show Formulas and observe the worksheet.
- Check a known calculation to confirm the normal result view.
