How to enter a formula (cell reference) to a shape instead of text
In Excel 2003 it was possible to set a reference to a cell to show the value
of that cell in a grouped shape: WorksheetA.Shapes("ABC").GroupItems("ABC_DEF").For mula = "=" & WorksheetB.Name & "!" & WorksheetB.Cells(1, 1).Address(RowAbsolute:=False, ColumnAbsolute:=False) How is this done in Excel 2007? Thanks |

Thanks for the input. The solution works, but only if previously I remove (even a non-existing) text: worksheeta.shapes("mygroup").groupItems("my2ndshap e").oleformat.object.text= "" regards Luca "Héctor Miguel" wrote: hi, Luca !
