You need to learn how to post and you need to learn patience to wait for an
answer. You need a worksheet_change event macro. -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "Tony" wrote in message ... Can you do a calculation on a cell, get the answer and then post it back to the same cell? |

Not without using VB.
Sub CircularLogic() Range("A1") = Range("A1").Value + Range("C1").value end sub You can then either assign the macro to a hotkey, a command button, or an event (in VB) -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "Tony" wrote: Can you do a calculation on a cell, get the answer and then post it back to the same cell? |

My apologies. I forgot to mention that you *can* do it with just formulas, if
you turn off automatic calculation. (tools-Options-calculation, set to manual, iterations to 1). Now you could put in A1 =A1-C3 and everytime you press F9, XL would perform a calculation. -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "Tony" wrote: Can you do a calculation on a cell, get the answer and then post it back to the same cell? |
