Hi All,

In my worksheet1, Cell A1 is my Age.

It's formula is =worksheet2!A1 (ie, I enetered my Age in Cell A1 on sheet 2 and it was pulled through.

I want to be able to put my Age in worksheet3!A1 aswell, and have sheet1 populate just the same...

Hope this makes sense..
Is this possible please?

Many Thanks

Thats my question...

I want it to accept a value from either of the other cells, whichever is filled.

Note - Only one will be filled, so there won't be conflicitng info trying to populate the cell.

Is it possible?

Yes!

=if(Worksheet2!A1="",Worksheet3!A1,Worksheet2!A1)

Basically says if A1 in sheet 2 is blank, then use A1 in sheet 3, otherwise (ie if A1 in sheet 2 is filled) then use A1 in sheet 2.
