How to Paste Formula as Text Value in Microsoft Excel
By default when you copy/cut and paste in Excel, everything in the source cell or data range, formatting, formulas, validation, comments is pasted to the destination cells. This is what happens when you press CTRL+V to paste. Since that might not be what you want, you have many other paste options, depending on what you copy.
For example, you might want to paste the contents of a cell, but not its formatting. Or maybe you want to transpose the pasted data from rows to columns. Or, you might need to paste the result of a formula instead of the formula itself.
