Please Help someone

Hi my name is Benji,

I dont know if anyone will answer this,

I am trying to move away from MS office suite permanently. Trying to use librecalc for the “SUM” function.

When I hit return, I am just left with the argument. like this

=SUM(A6:A11)

Hello,

When posting a question please include your OS and specific LibreOffice version being used. This can affect answers like this one.

You probably have a selection to display formulas. From the menu select Tools->Options. Then double click on LibreOffice Calc in left column. Click on View. Then in right pane see if Formulas under Display section is checked. If so un-check it with a mouse click.

Another option is cells having Text format string; in that case, typing anything into the cell is interpreted as plain text, and not attempted to be interpreted as numbers/formulas/whatever.

Thanks you guys so much !!! its fixed.

are there any tutorials to familiarize myself with the libre office suite? Coming from 20 years of MS Office.
