    Hi Luong - Welcome to the Excel Forum.
    It seems that you have some shapes on your two cells due to which you are unable to drag the formula. Also, if it is not there, can you please attach the file. Also, the little grey box must be an error message showing (click on that and see).
    Thanks

    Hi there. How annoying for you. You have hundreds of small text boxes (or other shapes) all over your sheet. To get rid of them Hit F5/Special/Objects/OK. Then hit delete and they're GONE.
