Tip # 35 View formulas, or not, quickly

You probably know that you can view all the formulas in a sheet by choosing Options from the Tools menu and selecting Formulas on the View tab. Doing so displays formulas instead of their evaluated results. But there's a quicker way. Press Ctrl+~ (the tilde character to the left of the number 1 on your keyboard). The keyboard combination toggles between formulas and normal view. When you're finished viewing the formulas, simply press Ctrl+~ again to return to normal view.
