    Enter a value and automatically perform a formula on it

    Hi,

    Here’s my problem. I want to inter a value in E4 (let say 7) and I want to calculate 5,58% of that value. I want the result (0,39) to be in the same E4 cell. I other words, I want to be able to inter a value in E4 make it become the result of X5,58/100 automatically. I tried things with conditional formatting and with format cell and noting seems to work… I got close with custom format in this post but it doesn’t do what I need.

    It seems something that should be easy to do but I realise that it’s not!

    I dont think you can do that, you can use another cell to calculate it.
    It's probably possible in VBA but not with a formula.

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.
