    Excel Circular Reference to a Hard Coated Cell

    Guys - I am having a hard time tripping over changing a cell that is an hard coated assumption.
    When I change it I get a circular reference but it doesnt show an arrow of where its coming from - nor can I check precedents/dependents

    It is being referenced in other sheets.

    If I change it to 0, it goes circular reference on me and reverts to last calculation.... any help would be extremely helpful getting me out of this rut!

    Thanks all

    without seeing what you are working with, its almost impossible to offer suggestions. But take a look at the bottom left of the excel sheet, below the 1st sheet name, and to the right of the "ready" indicator. It should tell you you have a circ error and what cell it is in. This is not always the cell though, but if you just delete that cell, it may tell you the next cell - you might be able to track it it's source that way
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you
