    Clear formula results in adjacent cells when new entry in first cell

    Hi

    I wish to clear linked formula results, for example in cells B, C, D, E, F2 when there is a new entry in cell A2

    When a new name is entered into cell A2, I want to clear all results from the adjacent cells

    You probably need VBA for this.

    Administrative Note:

    Welcome to the forum.

    Members will tailor the solutions they offer to the version (NOT a release number like 2205) of Office (Excel, NOT Windows) that you have. Please check that your forum profile is up-to-date in this respect. If you aren't sure, in Excel go to File | Account and report what it says below the MS logo at the top of that page. If your version is for Mac, please also state this. Thanks.

    Please update your profile as I requested. Thanks.

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

    Thank you all for your help

    I eventually sorted the issue, I created a VBA to clear cells in a row, and attached it to a specific cell so that when any change happened in that cell in ran the macros
