My issue is that if the source data formatting is changed, the change in the
formatting isn't reflected in the referebce link on the destination worksheet. For example: I have a link in cell A1 in Tab1 pointing to A1 in Tab2 which starts by being a dollar amount ($1,000). If I change A1 in Tab 2 to a percent and change it's formatting to (.50%), the link in Tab 1 stays formatted as a dollar amount ($0.50). How can I make the reference link match the new formatting of its source? I would appreciate any help you can provide. Thank you, -- Suzanne Marie |

Formulas can't change formatting--they can only return values.
Maybe you could have a macro that copies formatting from one cell to another--maybe even an event macro???
