    Column Label Renamed/formula result circular

    Hello.

    I received spreadsheet with the columns that looked like it was re-labeled.

    It is messing with my formula giving me error --circular reference.

    I know you do something to rename it but I have brain fart and can't remember what to do.

    Thank you for your time. Beth

    When I put formula to add the "hours" from F6 + H6 --- it doesn't work because "J6 is now F6" --columns have been renamed

    It seems to me that if the formula in cell J6 should be =F6+H6 then the hours in F6 should be calculated from something other than =J6-H6.
    Perhaps there is data in another sheet as the sheet name, Dinmore Engineering (Page 8), indicates there are other sheets (pages).
    The other option would be to manually enter the hours in F6, as is done in cell F8, so that the formula in J6 does not produce a circular reference.
    Consider taking the time to add to the reputation of everybody that has taken the time to respond to your query.
