find out which sheets refer to a cel
 
Hi,
I have a few worksheets that I called lookups1, lookups2, lookups3... which
contains values that many other sheets refer to as part of an index,
vlookup... formula. How do I find out which sheets refer to this lookups1
sheet. I tried the trace dependants and although it puts a symbole refering
to somethin it doesn't tell me the sheet names that refer to it? What I want
to know is which sheets use the lookups to pull values.

Thanks,

William Horton

find out which sheets refer to a cel
 
Double-click on the line that points to the symbol that appears when you
choose trace dependants. That will show you all the cells that look to the
cell in question. It includes sheet names too. It only works for the cell
in question though. You would have to do the same thing for each individual
cell that you want to check.

Hope that helps.
