Try this with a % value in A1
="sally sold " & TEXT(A1,"#%") & " units of seashells" OR ="sally sold " & TEXT(A1,"#.00%") & " units of seashells" (with decimals) If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "brianDY" wrote: heres what im trying to do .. i want to create a note template that would be something simillar to this: sally sold 18 units of seashells I want the 18 part reference a cell in the spreadsheet (the cell that already is calculating how many units sally is selling) |
