change...

I have a 'simple ?' question..

If I have 2 sheets..
In sheet1.. A1: 5 (lets say)

In sheet2.. A1: =Sheet1!A1

I want to leave number that I've got from sheet1.. when I change number
5 into something else.. so that I can change sheet1 A1: to *10*, and to
have number 5 in sheet2, becouse it calculated it before..

Sorry for my English if you don't understand me..

Thanks for help..

The only way to truly lock in the value of a formula is to replace it with
its value. If you change calculation mode to manual (Tools, Options,
Calculation) then the formula's value (and all formulas values) will be
maintained until you force a calc by pressing F9.

Formulas like to return values. When excel recalculates, your formulas will be
refreshed.

About the only thing you can do is get rid of the formula. Just edit|copy,
edit|paste special|values.

An alternative is to select both sheets before typing in the original
value. If you type in "5" in A1 of one of the sheets, A1 will show "5"
in both sheets.

When you want to change the value of A1 in Sheet1 but leave the value
of A1 in Sheet2 unchanged, make sure Sheet1 is the only active sheet
before entering the new number.
