how to set the value of a cell from another cell
Hi, I want to write a formula in cell A1 that sets the value of cell A2 to "Test". How do I do that?

There is no way a formula entered in one cell can alter the contents of
another cell. You may enter following formula =in A2: =IF(A1=1;"test";"something else") HTH -- AP "naddad" a écrit dans le message de news: ...

His answer is not irrelevant. You cannot (without code) change the
value of one cell from within another cell, this is a fairly well recognized situation. The best you can do is you set A2's value to be contingent upon A1's value as Ardus has politely tried to show. You could also have a little respect for people who try to help you for free.

I mean the solution was irrelevant... It's like i'm trying to buy a car and you suggest to have a burger instead... :confused: -- naddad ------------------------------------------------------------------------ naddad's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=29817 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=552285 |

Can you please provide further explanation of what you are trying to
do? Why do you need to set the value of A2? Why can't A2 =if(A1 = "Whatever you want","Test","False")? Why does this not fix your issue?
