Hi,

If you have cells with absolute formulas - how do you make them to add the
active worksheet into the formula as well?

I needed this because in code I move the formulas in the first sheet to
cells in another second sheet and still want to have the right reference
formula.

- OK, I need it to add a sheet reference to the first sheet. If one rng

in
sheet1 have "=$A$4" I need it to be "Sheet1!$A$4" in sheet3.

Sometimes the rng contain a reference to another third sheet and it work
fine, we still get the reference to the right sheetname( Sheet3!A4" will

be
Sheet3!$A$4" ).

BUT with this code when the reference is pointing within the first sheet
("=A4") , it will start pointing to the reference cells in the second

sheet
"=$A$4"! , when it should be Sheet1!$A$4"

Can anybody help me with that? With code add the activesheet in front?


/Regards
