How to link formulas from multiple spreadsheets

RE: Multiple spreadsheets

Hi Robert,

Thank you for your question.

Open the two spreadsheets up and start a formula with an equals sign. Switch to the first workbook and select the cell you need to use. Choose the appropriate Operator( - + * etc.) and select another cell in the second workbook. Any changes made to the first workbook will update the formulas in the second workbook.

Alternatively, if there is a formula in a cell in workbook one that you want linked to a cell in workbook 2 then start with an equals sign in workbook 1. The next step is to switch to workbook two and select the cell with the formula in and press enter. This means the two workbooks are linked.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

Excel tip:

Make macros work in newer versions of Excel

If you have created macros in Excel 97 or 2000 that you want to be able to use in 2002/XP or 2003, you may need to alter the macro security settings in the newer version of Excel you are using.

To do this, go to Tools - Options - Security.

Select Macro Security and change the security setting to Low.

Tick the boxes next to 'Trust Add-ins' and 'Trust Visual Basic' and click OK.

After you have restarted Windows, you should then be able to use your macros created in earlier versions of Excel.
