In the Formatting toolbar, the three boxes on the left are the Apply
Style, Font Name, and Font Size lists (see Figure 97). They show the
current setting for the selected cell or area. (The Apply Style list may
not be visible by default.) Click the down-arrow to the right of each box
to open the list.

Formula bar
On the left hand side of the Formula bar (see Figure 98) is a small text
box, called the Name Box, with a letter and number combination in it,
such as D7. This combination, called the cell reference, is the column
letter and row number of the selected cell.
Figure 98. Formula Bar
To the right of the Name box are the the Function Wizard, Sum, and
Function buttons.
Clicking the Function Wizard button opens a dialog from which you
can search through a list of available functions This can be very useful
because it also shows how the functions are formatted.
In a spreadsheet the term function includes much more than
mathematical functions. See Chapter 7 in the Calc Guide.
The Sum button inserts a formula into the current cell that totals the
numbers in the cells above the current cell. If there are no numbers
above the current cell, then the cells to the left are placed in the Sum
formula.
