Hi
is there a way to tell if a cell is in a formula somewhere on the the same spreadsheet?
I have a number in a cell and don't what to delete it if it's being used in a formula. The spreadsheet is to big to find what changes if i delete the cell (or change it).

Excel Facts

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.
Go to Formulas > Formula Auditing and click Trace Dependents

Also:

CTRL-] will select dependent cells (but not show the arrows)
