It sounds like there is event code that is monitoring the cell (or cells),
and stripping out any non-numeric characters.

With the information provided, there is nothing to show that B1 would change
if B2 is changed.

I am taking a class & need help with this question. If you enter 5B21C2
in
cell B1 of a worksheet (keep in mind it's a make believe worksheet), the
formula is replaced by the number 125 when you press enter. What
happened?
Second part is using the worksheet from above, you change the number in
cell
B2 from 55 to 65. What happens to the number in the cell B1? Why? I
can't
find anywhere in the book how to (+,-* or /) or any other math direction
involving a formula like above. Due to that I have no idea how to answer
either one of these questions. Please Help!
