Linking cells between sheets
Example: Sheet1 has master data which is linked to various other 'working'
sheets in the same workbook. In practice, the master data has to be moved around regularly, using cut and paste. Each time this happens, Excel moves the reference in the 'working' sheet, which is not what is required. All I want to do (for example) is make sure that cell A8 in the working sheet ALWAYS equals cell A2 in the master sheet - even if I have cut and pasted the data in A2 on the master sheet to another location. I have tried =Data!A2 and =Data!$A$2 to no avail. Is there any way to 'lock' the referenced cell (Working A8) to the master cell (A2). Help much appreciated. |
