Hi,


I have data in two sheets and i put some formulas in sheet1 by refering some cells in sheet2.


Can i select all those referred cells in Sheet2 (where the cell i got result by refering cells in sheet2) with any keybord shortcut or is there any tip for this.


Thanks-Sekhar
 
Hi Sekhar,


I just tried something, I am not sure whether this is really efficient. Just sharing what I did.


Suppose your formula is in sheet1 cell A1, the formula is "=Sheet2!A1".

Now in the sheet1 itself,goto Formulas, Trace Precedents.


You will get a black arrow & a box.


Double click on the arrow, you will get a "Go To" dialog box with a path mentioned.


The path will be of sheet 2 cell A1 in our case.


select the path, press OK, you have reached !
 
There's actually a really handy couple of shortcut keys for selecting Precedents and Dependents.


Precedents: CTRL + [

Dependents: CTRL + ]
 
Thanks for Sharing, it is really helpful.

I have one more question related to this.


If we have referred more then once a cell (i.e., in cell A1, b1+b2+b3 (or) sheet!c1+sheet!c2+sheet!c3) to a formula, how to select all those multiple cells with a shortcut key.


Thanks-Sekhar
