    Newbie challenge - formula

    Can anyone help me, please?

    I need to do a calculation but without the formula being referred to in the target cell.
    ie. Just the answer. (number)

    I have seen it done, and it looked simple but I just can't figure it

    Thanks

    BD

    This requires VBA (or copy/paste values).

    Try something like this:

    This will take the sum of A1 and B1 and put the result (not the formula) in C1.

    SOLVED.
    Thank you very much, also discovered the copy option which just takes the sum total.
    Very helpful
