I have 3 tables on a sheet (C5:M25, C30:M50, & C55:M75). I might add one or two more. They are all the exact same shape. The values in the top row and the first column of Table 1 are entered manually and change often. I want those same values to be replicated in the other two tables. If I change E5 to 25, I want E30 & E55 to also change to 25. f I change C7 to =sqrt(2), I want C32 & C57 to change to that same value.

I have assigned the name Xi to the top row ($5:$5). I put "=@Xi" in each cell in the top rows of Tables 2 & 3. But I can't figure out how to set up Tables 2 & 3 so that the values in the first column change whenever the corresponding cell in Table 1 is changed.

Thanks

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().

What's working there?

Here's a simple example of what I am trying to accomplish. These three tables perform different calculations on the same X and Y data. Row 6, the "master" row, has been assigned the name "Xi". All of the cells in D14:H14 and D22:H22 cointain "=@Xi". That ensures that all of the X values are the same. If I change any value in D6:H6, the corresponding cell in the other two tables will be changed to match.

I would like to do the same for the Y values. The values in C7:C10 are the "master". I would like the values in C15:C18 and C23:C26 to be the same. If I change a value in C7:C10, I want the corresponding cell in the other two tables to be changed to match. I cannot figure out a way to do that other than to set C15 to "=C7", C16 to "=C8", etc. That works, but can have problems if a row is added or deleted in Table 1.

It that clearer?

No, calculation is set to Automatic.

I see, I did not understand (mis-read) row being a named range. Sorry for that. I won't have time during the day. Unless you or someone else find a solution by then, I will check it out again.
