When all statements for a month are in, I paste values, and it becomes a flat -2500, but what I really want to see is for it to bring in all the refs and make it like =-1000-1000-200-300, which would make checking a lot easier when something is wonky. This might not be helpful, but you can highlight portions of the formula and hit F9 to resolve them to test things out. So using your example, you can highlight $F$19 in the formula, hit F9, and it'll replace that with -1000. (You can escape out afterwards if you don't want to actually change the formula.) You can repeat this with each reference, or even for parts of the expression. Fair warning that this doesn't respect order of operations so be careful. For example, if your formula's =A1+B1*C1 and you highlight A1+B1 and hit F9, it'll just add those together, which won't be a useful answer. It's mostly only good when you need to check something quick, Evaluate Formula is usually better.

First, that you have a newer version of excel that can use the fancy array formulas they added in the last few years. And second that the version numbers in your second column are easily sortable ascending or descending. Start with a list of the different devices (which if you don't already have it, you can use the UNIQUE function to build one). Lets put that in column D (so there's a gap). In column E use this formula: code:
Breaking it down, the FILTER function gets a list of every version number that matches the Device name in column D, the SORT function then puts them in Descending order (if you want Ascending change the -1 to just a 1), and the INDEX function returns whatever's at the top of that array. It should looks something like this:
