    Remembering Cell Values

    I want to change the value of cell-A conditioned on the value of another
    cell, however if the condition fails I want the value of cell-A to be
    unchanged.

    In other words, I want cell-A to remember the value from the last time the
    condition was met.

    It sounds like setting a global variables might accomplish this, but I don't
    think Excel has this capability.

    I don't know VBA.

    Any ideas?

    Excel can do almost anything. Give examples.

    Example:

    I want Cell-A to copy Cell-B if Cell-C="yes". Else, I want Cell-A to stay at
    it's last value.

    Cell-B=5
    Cell-C=yes
    Cell-A=5 (condition met so value of Cell-A copied from Cell-B)

    Later:
    Cell-B=6
    Cell-C=xyz (not "yes")
    Cell-A=5 (stays at last value that last met condition)

    Still later:
    Cell-B=6
    Cell-C=yes
    Cell-A=6 (condition met so value of Cell-A copied from Cell-B)
