Converting Cell References
Is there a quick way to convert fixed cell references ($row$column) to
eliminate the $ without editing the formula and deleting the $ one keystroke at a time? Sure would save me a lot of time. Thanks Bill Falzone |

Converting Cell References
In versions previous to 2007:
go to "tools/options/view" and tick formulas tick box. it now will show the formula text instead of the value. you can now use serach and replace to eliminate the $'s. no idea of 2007 yet... squenson via OfficeKB.com wrote: Once a reference is selected or the cursor is in it, pressing F4 one or more time cycles to the four combinations. billbrandi wrote: Is there a quick way to convert fixed cell references ($row$column) to eliminate the $ without editing the formula and deleting the $ one keystroke at a time?

You can go to the Edit Menu and select Replace. In the "Find What:" box,
enter $. In the "Replace With:" box, leave it blank. With the cells highlighted in your sheet where you would like to remove the absolute references, click replace all. It will remove all of the $.

Converting Cell References
Actually what I need to do is put an absolute reference in all the cells
within a concatenated formula. I haven't found a way to do, even using Search and Replace without updating each cell reference and the formula s concatenating up to 7 cells. Too many to do manually.

Maybe if you provide a sample of your formula; how it looks now and what you
want it to look like after the change, that may inspire someone to reply. Rob "CC" wrote in message ...

Converting Cell References
Here are a few macros for changing cell references.
Sounds like you need the last one for all rleative. Sub Absolute() Dim Cell As Range For Each Cell In Selection If Cell.HasFormula Then Cell.Formula = Application.ConvertFormula _ (Cell.Formula, xlA1, xlA1, xlAbsolute) End If Next End Sub Sub AbsoluteRow() Dim Cell As Range For Each Cell In Selection If Cell.HasFormula Then Cell.Formula = Application.ConvertFormula _ (Cell.Formula, xlA1, xlA1, xlAbsRowRelColumn) Next End Sub Sub AbsoluteCol() Dim Cell As Range For Each Cell In Selection If Cell.HasFormula Then Cell.Formula = Application.ConvertFormula _ (Cell.Formula, xlA1, xlA1, xlRelRowAbsColumn) Next End Sub Sub Relative() Dim Cell As Range For Each Cell In Selection If Cell.HasFormula Then Cell.Formula = Application.ConvertFormula _ (Cell.Formula, xlA1, xlA1, xlRelative) Next End Sub Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Sun, 23 Dec 2007 12:07:00 -0800, CC wrote: I need help with this same thing and noticed no one answered.
