Changing a cell reference within a formula w/another cell
Hi Let's say I have this formula in A1: =if(A2=2,"Hello","") But let's say I want to make the location of where the '2' has to be to trigger the 'Hello' in A1 conditioned on a value in B1, and let's say B1 changes to 5. So now instead of the formula in A1 saying =if(A2=2,"Hello","") I will want it to say =if(A5=2,"Hello","").

Changing a cell reference within a formula w/another cell
I am confused, are you asking for 2 formulas in one cell, this can be done I just want to be sure that is what you are asking: for example =if(A2=2,"Hello",if(A5=2,"Hello","")) Is this what you mean?? -- davesexcel ------------------------------------------------------------------------ davesexcel's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=31708 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=519578 |

One way, think we could use in A1:
=IF(INDIRECT("A"&B1)=2,"Hello","") where B1 will contain the row reference -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "tx12345" wrote in message ...
