retain result
Hi, Is it possible to retain results from a formula even if the cell
your calculating changes. For example, in A1 I have a 2, then in a20 I have '=A1'. A1 now changes to 2 but I want A1 to retain original value. I suspect the answers no, and Im using vba to do what I want. The reason I though Id ask is My values in A1 change every 2 mins, going from 1 to 4. Basically when its 1 a certain value is enetered in a19, a20 = new value when 2, a21 = 3, a22 = 4. Calculation done on these 4 values, then resets and starts again. As I said can do this in vba just though if its possible to do without vba. Regards Robert |

You need VBA really.
