Copying formula to other worksheets

How to copy figures to other worksheet without losing the formula?

RE: Copying formula to other worksheets

Hi Jean-Paul, Thanks for the post, I guess this is really an Excel question, so here goes, If the two spreadsheets are consistent (exactly the same) you can copy the cell that holds the formula and then paste it into the same cell in the new worksheet, it will retain its formula and relative reference. If however you just need it to look at the same cells in the original spreadsheet but provide the answer in the new spreadsheet, then in the target cell place an equals sign (=) and navigate to the cell with the formula, select it and press the enter key. Hope that works..


 

Access tip:

Random sampling

Data is th key to a good database, therefore checking is essential.

A good way of checking data is by random sampling. You can do this in a query, by typing the follow:
1) In the Field box create a RandonID field eg. Randon Id: Rnd(fieldname])

2) sort the field
3)Right click and chage the properties for To value to be the number of randon records you want to see.

4) Change the set to Show row for Randon ID to be False, add all the other fields you want to see and the run the query.
