Hello everyone
I've been using Excel for my entire IT career (20+ years) but never in the way I have been using it since I started my current position 3 months ago. In all those years I only just scratched the surface, and never knew what all Excel could do. I didn't even have a clue to how ignorant I was. (2 weeks ago I did my first Pivot table, with help from chandoo org Thanks )
I've searched for this a few times, but I either am am not using the proper terminology or i'm looking at the problem wrong. Now that I know there are classes on this site I will be taking them at night.
So here it is:
Lets say you have a simple spreadsheet. A1 has the value 10. B1 has the value of 1. C1 has a formula, =A1-B1. That's all fine and good but here is my question. Is there a way to write that formula so that the result not only shows in the C1 cell, but also the TEXT is copied over into D1? I know, this can be done manually, copy then paste values, but is there a way to do this inside the formula so you don't have to go back and run a macro or copy and paste.
Please let me know if anyone knows the formula for that, or if I asked an impossibility
Thanks for your help, and thank you all for this wonderful site.
