Its always the simple ones....Basic Circular Reference Problem.
I have the simplest problem to solve and its giving me the biggest headaches.
I have a column of product prices (say: column B) and I wish to add 10% or a fixed value of 0.1 to each cell in the column. I want to store the results in the same cell that the initial number was sourced from and that the formula runs in. e.g. Cell B3 value 6.34 I put a formula in cell B3 : =b3+0.1 I want the final value of 6.44 to be stored in cell B3... Is what I am trying to do possible or (as I suspect) will I need to involve more cells/columns? Many Thanks in advance for the advice, Dave |

Try entering 0.1 in another cell, temporarily, Copy it, then select the range in Column B and go to Edit|Paste Special and select Add. Click Ok. Now you can delete that 0.1 from the temp cell. -- Vito ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Vito's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=29182 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=558902 |
