Hi,
I would like to find a formua for Excel 2003 that involves Cross-Referencing within the sheets of a spreadsheet.
I have taken information from the 1st sheet and copied it onto the 2nd sheet and would like the formula to cross-reference the data so the same is read in each when the main 1st sheet has a Y in it to say it's completed. I have worked out a simple formula to copy the cell from sheet 1 to sheet 2 (whether its blank or has a Y in it):
='sheet1'!H2501
but this leaves a 0 in the cell for sheet 2 instead of a blank cell as in sheet 1 when the work has not been complete. I wouldnt mind this so much but I am counting the number of Y in each row with a formula further down the page and since sheet 1 has the same formula as sheet 2
=COUNTIF(B3:B2501,"Y") (H3:H2501,"Y" in sheet 1)
it has started counting the 0 instead of counting the letter Y, I need blank cells in sheet 2 so I get the same outcome calclations as sheet 1.
I hope this explains what I need as I am guessing it is abit more involved than
='sheet1'!H2501
Thanking in antcipation!
