Can a formula place a value in another cell
with excel 2000, can a formula place a value in another cell or can this only
be done with vba or a macro -- Pete Blackburn - words to live by: "Don''t ever let somebody tell you. You can''t do something.You got a dream,You gotta protect it." Edited Quote from the Pursuit Of Happiness |

Can a formula place a value in another cell
Functions called from cells on worksheets can only return values to that cell
(with very minor exceptions). You may want to look at worksheet/workbook/application events that will touch other cells. default105 wrote: with excel 2000, can a formula place a value in another cell or can this only be done with vba or a macro -- Pete Blackburn - words to live by: "Don''t ever let somebody tell you.

Can a formula place a value in another cell
hi
no. a formula can only return values to the cell in which it resides. it can not put values in other cells nor can it perform actions. only macro code can do this. sorry. regards FSt1 "default105" wrote: with excel 2000, can a formula place a value in another cell or can this only be done with vba or a macro -- Pete Blackburn - words to live by: "Don''t ever let somebody tell you.

A formula may not do that but you can use =a1 to get the data in a1.
However, you may use a worksheet_change event macro in the sheet module that when a1 is changed will do whatever is desired to the other cell. -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "default105" wrote in message ... with excel 2000, can a formula place a value in another cell or can this only be done with vba or a macro -- Pete Blackburn - words to live by: "Don''t ever let somebody tell you.

Can a formula place a value in another cell
Since my workbook is formula driven based on one cell on one worksheet and
the value I need to change resides on another worksheet, what event would be better to use. This one cell changes the data on 12 worksheets. -- Pete Blackburn - words to live by: "Don''t ever let somebody tell you. You can''t do something.You got a dream,You gotta protect it."
