how to mirror a field

How can I make field A2 = AA2 when it's not a number?
What about this?

=IF(ISTEXT(A16),A16,"")

Of course that should be...

=IF(ISTEXT(AA2),AA2,"")

Thanks, I don't use excel much and 99% of what I was doing was multiplying
and adding multiple fields per row and I didn't even think to use the equal
sign and field name. :P
 
If you simply use =AA2, if AA2 is empty, you'll have a 0 in the cell where
you put the formula

=IF(AA2="","",AA2)
 
Sorry misread, you said when it's not a number. Put this formula in A2:

=IF(AA2<>"",IF(NOT(ISNUMBER(AA2)),AA2,""),"")

If AA2 is not empty and AA2 is not a number A2 will equal AA2.
