Hello,
I cannot reproduce that behaviour. Please check the fomula in the pasted cell. Does it really say =A1+B1?
Check your calculation options on the Formulas ribbon. If calculation is set to Manual, the formula will not recalculate and the result will not refresh when the formula is pasted.
Does that help?

As I said in my return e-mail, I checked the formula and it was correct. The problem was your second possibility, the calculation us set to manual. I don't know how this setting changed as I didn't do it on purpose and actually didn't know you could make that change. I am still learning some of the features of this version having used an older version for sometime.
Thanks for the help, it is greatly appreciated.
