formula and cell link movements
 
Please help with this one...............Cell F3 contains a formula, which
references cells F1 and F2. Which of the following will change if the
contents of cells F1, F2, and F3 are moved elsewhere in the spreadsheet?

I forgot to give the Multiple choice answers to chose from:


(A) Both relative and absolute references to cells F1 and F2 will change
(B) Any absolute references to cells F1 and F2 within the formula
will change
(C) Any relative references to cells F1 and F2 within the formula
will change
(D) Neither relative nor absolute references to cells F1 and F2 will
change

I would have thought that was an easy one to work out for yourself. Just try
it and see.

The answer is, and I just tried it and saw, is that they all change. Moving
say F3 first will not change that at all at this point as the cells it
refers to do not change. Moving F1 and F2 will change them, and will also
update F3.
