Hi
I did simple formula = range1 - range2 and then hit ctrl+alt+enter and I got -2. By accident, I double clicked on -2 and went inside the cell in edit mode then I click anywhere outside that cell, then excel showed me the result as you can see below:

My question, how can I get excel to display the result like that without me double clicking the cell then click outside (that was by accident).
Also please, I entered ctrl+alt+enter to make the formula array formula. I remember around 1 year ago, ExcelIsFun said in one his video that the Office 365, you do not need to enter Ctrl+Alt+delete anymore, did I hear that right? Thank you very much.

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.

Just enter the formula normally (ie without CSE)
