i am a computer teacher, and i am trying to make a quiz for my students. i want to test their knowledge on using formulas, functions, and absolute cell references.
i want to be able to have the spreadsheet "grade" itself, so i need a way to have excel check a formula (ie. =A2+$G$1) to tell me that the absolute cell reference was used properly.
i was thinking of converting the formula to a string and comparing it to "=A2+$G$1", but have not been able to find an answer.
any suggestions? my programming skills are horrible, so if you suggest vba, please explain in detail.
thanks!
