insert text to different pages and update

[fwburkey]

Is there a way to insert a text cell from one page put into another page and when the first page cell is updated the second page cell will also be updated. Using the = sign just displays the formula, not the text.

Thanks
Frank

Not clear what you are doing wrong. the formula should look like =Sheet1!A1 Make sure there is nothing to the left of the equals.

Unless in the Tools/options/view you have display formulas ticked.

Tony, Thanks for the help, What i didn't mention is that i was doing this with 2 merged cells, I got it to work by unmerging the cells, retyping the text and than remerging the cells.

thanks again
