Linking Data
I am able to link data from an external source between worksheets if the cell
remains the same on the opposing worksheet. How can I link this data from an exteranl source if the cell changes on the opposing work sheet ? |

Assign a range name to the cell in the source worksheet. If the cell gets
moved, the formula in the linked worksheet will still work.

Linking Data
Hi,
I don't think I'm clear on this one, if you enter the following formula in Sheet1 cell C1 =Sheet2!A1 if you move cell A1 to F4 the formula will adjust. If you use =Sheet2!$A$1 it will also work. So maybe you aren't moving, your copying? You should show us a specific example. What is the formula, what does it return before you move it and after you move it? -- Thanks, Shane Devenshire "RickComputer" wrote: I am able to link data from an external source between worksheets if the cell remains the same on the opposing worksheet.
