Default Complicated Question


Well this isn't a complicated question, but it is for me.

When I type text into a cell, I want the text to appear in another
worksheet and in the cell of my choosing. How do I do this?

Thanks.

Assuming you are typing into Sheet1, then in cell A1 of Sheet2 enter
this formula:

=IF(Sheet1!A1="","",Sheet1!A1)

You can copy this across and down Sheet2 to suit.

Whatever you enter into Sheet1 will be mirrored in Sheet2.

Hope this helps.

Pete

Hi!

If you enter some data in cell A1 on Sheet1 and you want the same data to be
entered in cell X100 on Sheet20, enter this formula in cell X100 on Sheet20:

=Sheet1!A1

If no data has been entered in cell A1 on Sheet1 then the formula will
return 0. If you don't the 0 to be returned then use this formula:

=IF(Sheet1!A1="","",Sheet1!A1)

I tried entering =IF(Sheet1!A1="","",Sheet1!A1) but it didn't work. The
formula just stayed in the box as if it were text to be printed.

The exact formulas I tried we

=IF(Sheet6!C35="","",Sheet6!C35)

I also tried:

=Sheet6!C35

I get nothing. The formula just stays in the box.

Thanks.

That cell is probably formatted as TEXT.

Change the format to GENERAL, hit function key F2, then hit ENTER.
