I am new to posting here but have used this forum before for help. I appreciate all the knowledge I have gained from the people here....so thank you all!!
Now....I have an issue that I cant find info on so I decided to see if any one can help me out.
I am using a multiple sheet format with formulas on sheet 2 that will auto populate cells on this sheet depending on the data that is in the referenced cells from sheet 1.
The problem I am having is when I "drag" or "cut and past" data from one cell to another cell on sheet 1 it changes the formula on sheet 2 and I get a REF error.
I have included an example sheet because I realize it is hard to understand what I am trying to say.
In the following example I filled out sheet 1 and have added formulas to cells on sheet 2 that will autopopulate based on the data in the referenced cells on sheet 1.
Both sheets work fine until I try to drag the name "Rob" in cell A2 on sheet 1 to cell A6 on sheet 1.
Cell A2 on sheet 2 is supposed to autopopulate data from A2 on Sheet 1 and it does so it says also says 'Rob". Cell C2 on sheet 2 is supposed to autopopulate data from A6 so when I drag the name "Rob" for A2 to A6 on sheet 1 it should now appear in cell C2 on sheet 2 but I instead get a REF# error in C2 and the formula in A2 on sheet 2 changes and now autopoulates from A6 on sheet 1.
I cant understand why the formulas on sheet 2 change when I move data on sheet 1.....I am trying to be able to move data around on sheet 1 and have sheet 2's formulas remain unchanged and display the data from the original cell i referenced. I do alot of draging or cutting and pasting because the sheet I am working with has much more data and copy and paste causes duplication errors. The example is small and basic but displays the problem I am having.....any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks in advance
