Excel help regarding formulas from sheet to sheet
« on: March 07, 2007, 04:31:29 PM »
[timestamp=1173309904] :-?

I have an excel spreadsheet that has about 30 sheets. I have separate accounts on each sheet but often need to see the running balance of each individual sheet. I would like to take the formula from sheet 2, 3, 4 etc and have it show up in sheet 1. This is what I tried:
I want the total amount on sheet 2 in cell E13 to show up on sheet 1 in cell D1. And whenever I make changes to the totals on sheet 2, cell E13, I would like the new total to automatically show up on sheet 1, cell D1. I went to sheet 1, cell D1 and entered =2!E13 and hit enter and another window popped up browsing my files. I'm totally lost as to how to do this.

Help???

The formula in cell D1 on Sheet1 should be =Sheet2!E13.  One way to enter such formulas is as follows: Click cell D1 on Sheet1 to select it.  Hit the = sign.  Now, click on the Sheet2 tab and then on cell E13 on Sheet2, and then hit Enter.
