copy cell difficulties
Example ....
Sheet 1, [cell]A1 = Snoopy I want "Snoopy" to be copied to Sheet 2, [cell]K7, so if I change "Snoopy" (on Sheet 1, A1) to "Woodstock", it will change Sheet2,K7 as well. If I go to Sheet 2,K7 and type "=Sheet1!A1" OR "=IF(Sheet1!A1="","",Sheet1!A1)"...sometimes it works and sometimes it just prints the formula in Sheet2,K7. What am I doing wrong??? Moreover, what am I doing differenlty to make it work sometimes and not, other times??? |

copy cell difficulties
If it just shows the formula, the chances are that the cell had previously
been formatted as text. Format the cell as general, then enter the formula. -- David Biddulph "Melanie" wrote in message ... Example ....
