I've just started creating a Smartsheet form for people to easily add data however one cell should just be a formula so I'm using the 'Default Value' under field options but when the form is submitted an apostrophe is automatically added to the front of the formula rendering it useless without editing it. I've attached some screenshots so hopefully someone can help!
Thanks,
Dominic
