formula was shown as =B3+B4. The plus sign indicates that the contents of cells B3
and B4 are to be added together and then have the result in the cell holding the
formula. All formulas build upon this concept. Other ways of entering formulas are
shown in Table 7.
These cell references allow formulas to use data from anywhere in the worksheet
being worked on or from any other worksheet in the workbook that is opened. If the
data needed was in different worksheets, they would be referenced by referring to
the name of the worksheet, for example =SUM(Sheet2.B12+Sheet3.A11).
Note
To enter the = symbol for a purpose other than creating a formula as
described in this chapter, type an apostrophe or single quotation mark
before the =. For example, in the entry '= means different things to
different people, Calc treats everything after the single quotation mark—
including the = sign—as text.
