Losing calculations when deleting a sheet
Can anyone advise how I get around my "little" problem!
I have a series of calculations on one worksheet that reference another sheet which is deleted and then re-created. When re-creating the reference sheet I lose the calculations on the referencing worksheet. I'm sure there is a simple way to avoid this but don't know the answer! Any advice greatly appreciated, Neil |

Losing calculations when deleting a sheet
Tools-Options-General tab. Uncheck "R1C1 Reference Style"

Losing calculations when deleting a sheet
my only thought is to just clear the sheet, don't delete it.

Losing calculations when deleting a sheet
Select all the cells on the worksheet with the formulas that point at the sheet
to be deleted. Edit|replace what: = with: $$$$$ replace all Now all the formulas in the cells are just text. Delete the 2nd sheet and replace the $$$$$ with = to convert the text back to formulas. Watch out if you have names that point at ranges on that sheet to be deleted. You may want to use Gary's suggestion and clear the 2nd worksheet and just paste the new values/formulas into that sheet. highlystrung wrote: Can anyone advise how I get around my "little" problem!
