Default Can I pre-populate cells with a formula?


Hi. Is it possible to input a formula into selected cells such that, upon entering a number, the cell will display the final answer? Thanks.

Since that's how formulae work anyway, I don't see what the issue is. Of course, you might want to add some logic to prevent error displays and/or 0s when data are missing, but that's not really an issue of whether you can have a formula, so much as an issue of what it needs to contain.
