Formula function
Is there a function that will display the formula in a cell? For example, I
have a cell that is a formula, ='All Managers'!E2, which returns a value. However, I would like to have that formula displayed in another cell. Is there an existing function for this? Thanks! |

Formula function
You could copy the formula from the Formula Bar so that the references don't
change, then paste to another cell and just delete the = sign. -- HTH, RD ================================================== === Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ================================================== === "SDMFG" wrote in message ...

Formula function
I would like a function that would do this automatically, though.

Formula function
You would need VBA then or Excel4 macro
For VBA http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/formula.htm http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel...ll.htm#install Or you could do insertnamedefine and assume that the formula is in A6 then use =GET.CELL(6,Sheet1!$A$6) in the refers to (replace Sheet1 with your sheet name) You could call it GetFormula then use =GetFormula -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "SDMFG" wrote in message ...
