good evening....
Please understand there are absolute, and relative references....
In this case, I beleive you should be able to reference an absolute, so...
if sheet1 cell "a1" contains "40".
In sheet2 cell "a1", you would have a reference...
=Sheet1.Cells(1,1)
The result would be: 40 on sheet 2 in cell A1 (1, 1)
I believe you could also reference a cell with
...Range("A1")
Have Fun!

@Mark, aren't you confusing formula's with a bit of VBA? I'm sure you know what I mean.
@gvg, it's not clear how your sheet is made up (you say you show 2 columns but the sample shows 3x : which would suggest 3 columns, or did you mean rows?) and how you change certain info into headers (CROSS SECTION becomes BREADTH WIDTH).
If you are willing to upload your file (www.speedyshare.com or ge.tt) and create the header for sheet 2, things will get a lot clearer.
Best regards,
Trowa

Yes, I can only make it more complex, not simpler. I didn't want to add another layer onto this one.
Once we get passed the diplaying of text from one sheet to another, we can address the DELIMITING of text strings.
=MID(A1,FIND(":",A1)+1,FIND(":",A1)+LEN(FIND(":",A1)))
in cell B1 would result in
3000.0
as I said, I can only make it more complex.
:)

YOu could aslo not worry about code and use the built in functions....
Go to Data tab, then Text to Columns option. Later, choose "Delimited" option and then select "other" and put a ":" [colon]
I have used this many times.
I am assuming you are using 2010Excel

Hi gvg,
After looking at your data I would go with Mark's suggestion to use Delimiter.
Try to use fixed width and record it into a macro so you probably only have to do it once (depending on the amount in digits in the numbers).

On your workbook, there are typically 3(ea) tabs, labeled "SHEET1", "SHEET2", "SHEET3". These are the worksheets, and their names are "SHEET1", SHEET2", and SHEET3".
To acheive a function, you click on any cell, in this case, click on "SHEET2", and then click on cell "A1". Now type in
=SHEET1!RANGE("A1")
Now click back to "Sheet1". Click on cell "A1". Now type in
hello world
Now click back to "sheet2". What did you see?
Please use this as a wireframe, and give it a try. It is not as hard as what it sounds.
Have Fun!
