Question: Excel formuals not visible in formula bar but sheet is not protected & hidden is not enabled.  What's causing? An associate is having this problem in excel where the sheet is not displaying the contents of the cell in the formula bar but the sheet is not protected and the hidden is not chosen.  He rebooted and it cleared up the situation but we're wondering what could have caused this in the first place.

Answer: If rebooting cleared up the problem, it was probably a bug in the C++ code that got the methods mixed up. It was hiding the contents without checking the state of the protection.
