How do I make my formulas dynamic

ronn

Greetings everyone,

 

I have multiple formulas that require me to modify a specific number.

Although I attempted to utilize the dropdown menu, it was not successful.

There are two types of formulas: static and dynamic. An example of a static formula would be [Number]/2, while a dynamic formula would be [Number] /[#1].

Rather than modifying each formula individually, I am hoping to change one number for explample in the dropdown menu and have all of the formulas update dynamically.

Hi @ronn 

 

If the same data from the drop down needs to be updated to multiple formula tools, then you can use the below methos.

Hi @ronn 

 

FYI, I have selected 5 and the test results are produced for [Number]/5

 

Please check and advise if otherwise.

Hi @ronn 

 

Please click on the below highlighted one.

So you will be able to change the numbers from the List box.
