Changing a cells type based on it's value
I have a sheet that by selecting a scenario from a drop down list some of the
values change. This normally works fine. But this time I have a slight problem. In scenario 1 cell B4 will equal 500 but if scenario 2 is selected than B4 needs to equal 107%. How can I change B4 back and forward from a value to a percentage? |

3eith,
Would something along these lines work: =IF(A1=1,TEXT(A2,"0.00"),TEXT(A3,"0.00%")) Where A1 is your "scenario" A2/A3 are formulae/values HTH "Keith" wrote: I have a sheet that by selecting a scenario from a drop down list some of the values change.
