Hi,
If I have a formula in a cell, is there any means of extracting a specific element of that formula into another cell?
For example, say cell A1 contains:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(No_Expenses=C$6),--(Exp_Cat=$A14),Exp_Total)
If I want cell B1 to contain "C$6" (or maybe even the whole of the first argument) is there a way of doing this?
Alternatively, is there a way of converting the formula into just a text string (i.e. effectively removing the "=" from the start of the formula) so that I can then manipulate just the text?
Don't want to use VB - hoping Excel functions will suffice..........
Many thanks for any assistance,
Martin.
