    Re: #REF! Meaning

    It means that you have an invalid cell reference.

    Per the helpfile:

    Possible causes
    • Deleting cells referred to by other formulas, or pasting moved cells over cells referred to by other formulas
    • Using a link to a program that is not running
    • Linking to a Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) topic such as "system" that is not available
    • Running a macro that enters a function that returns #REF!
    Hope that helps,

    Colin
