    Cells that can be inputs or outputs

    Is there a way in Excel to have cells that can behave as either inputs or outputs?

    For example:

    A1:100%
    A2: 60%
    A3: 40%

    I want A2 and A3 to have a relationship where they both must equal 100%. So that if I change A2 to 70%, A3 will automatically change to 30%. But if I change A3 to 25%, A2 will automatically change to 75%.

    As far as I know I have to select one to be the dependant but I'd really like to write it in such a way that the user of this sheet can choose any one variable to manipulate.

    Thanks!

    the problem is as you cant have both a formula in cell (output) that you can also type in (input)
    this is because when you type in the cell it will overwrite the formula
    you cannot do it like you are saying without VBA

    alternatively without VBA
    you will need to have the output in separate cells to the input
