Variable use between CAS and Home.

On CAS I tried to factor x^2+4*x-5
Then, I went to the home screen and did what you suggested and typed:
F1:=x->
...and copied the quadratic from CAS to get:
F1:=x->x^2+4*x-5
...and it gives me Error:Syntax Error
What am I doing wrong here?
Thx

You need to do that in the CAS view, not in the Home view.
