Display supporting data of a summary cell

[Glockwood]

I have a large data source tab that is used across multiple report tabs. Within each tab each office has a summary cells with a number of sumifs and countifs statements.

users need the ability to select the summary cell and see the data elements on the data source tab that are part of the summary.

i would appreciate any guidance

Excel does not have that kind of functionality.

If you use a Pivot table, you can double click on a calculated result and the numbers that contribute to that result will show in a new sheet.

This behaviour doesn't exist for worksheet formulas and it would be hell on wheels to code that. The closest that Excel has out of the box is the "Show Precedents" in the Formulas ribbon, that will highlight the ranges that are referenced by the formula.
