Simple, but Complicated
 

Hello News Group,

I have such a simple question, but I am having so much difficulty in making
it happen. I want Excel to look at the value of a cell, which is calculated
by a formula to COPY that value into a cell elsewhere on the worksheet, but
in the same time leave the value in the original cell.

Copy the cell with the formula. Go to the "elsewhere" cell and hit
Edit--Paste special--paste link.

Enter an equal sign (=) in the "other" cell,
And click in the cell containing the formula,
Then hit <Enter.

Thank you for your replies - unfortunately I neglected to mention that the
formula is in a cell that is spread across to cells that are merged and the
cell that I want to put a copy of the total is in only a portion of the two
cells that the original result is in.
When I try to use your methods all I get in the cell that is supposed to be
a copy is "0.50"

Don't use "Merged" cells!

Use "Center Across Selection" instead.
