If i have a formula in workbook "HOME". For example the formula is =sum(a1+b1).
If I copy the whole page and paste it into a new workbook named "HOUSE" the
formula comes over as ='HOME'(a1+b1)
What could I do to make the formula stay the same regardless of what
workbook it was on???
Open House and Home
Use Windows | Arrange and tile them side by side
Hold down the CTRL button and drag the tab of the Home sheet to the tab list
on the HOUSE file
best wishes
