    In PC versions of Excel, the Formula bar on excel remains permanently at the top of the screen.

    I find this extremely useful, and efficient, rather than what my excel 2008 makes me do now:

    click on View and then Formula Builder, and then a pop-up box appears on the screen which is intrusive.

    Does anyone know how to make the formula bar appear permanently up there, instead of as a pop-up window and bar?

    :confused:

    THANKS!!!

    That displays it but does not lock it to the spreadsheet in a manner long time Windows users are accustom to.

    I find its behavior so annoying I use VMware Fusion just to run Excel for Windows.
