I am trying to Nest these two formulas: =J37 and ^[^=].*
=J37 This refers to a helper cell that will add a sequential number to the cell when the value of the cell is cleared.
^[^=].* This formula is meant to keep the formula in the cell when the value is deleted.
The first formula works but, when I delete the number in the target cell it removes the formula also. When I reinsert the formula (refering to the helper cell) the number appears and is one number higher as it should be.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.Thank you
