Hi guys,

I am making a worksheet and have a question regarding linking cells.

What I want to achieve:
Having two cells (on different sheets or not) which contain the same text.
So if I change the text in one cell it also changes in the other cell. Vice versa.
I've tried doing it just like this.

A1 contains formula (=B1)
B1 contains formula (=A1)

But then if you type it overwrites the formula.

Thanks in advance!
 
To jsut have it work on A1 change
Code:
If Target.Column = 1 Then
to
Code:
If Target.Address(0,0)= "A1" Then

How to calculate loan payments in Excel?
Use the PMT function: =PMT(5%/12,60,-25000) is for a $25,000 loan, 5% annual interest, 60 month loan.
Again thanks for your help. Still my question: what if I want a row or just one certain cell? In what way does the code change?

I showed you how to do it for one certain cell, to use row1 rather than column 1 just change .Column to .Row

Thanks again mate. It doesnt work though. It says that the line with (Sheets ... Target.Value) doesnt work?!

What was the exact error message?
Was in Run time error 9 subscript out of range?

In that case you didn't change the values in red to your actual sheet names.

Still doesn't work. It either gives an error and doesnt work or does nothing and doesnt work. I've a 100% changed the names correctly?!

The error you named before. What I do is add the code to the worksheet and then change the red name into the name of the other worksheet. Then I save and a message pops up saying you're saving without marcros or something. Does it work for you then?
