    Trying to Avoid a Circular Reference

    Looking for help with a Excel problem... I use Excel 2003. This spreadsheet is used by hundreds of people who know nothing about excel. I am trying to avoid having them turn on any special excel options to avoid a circular reference.
    1. They always enter the full rate in cell A2
    2. If they enter a discount amount, I would like the discount % and discount mo rate to calculate.
    3. If they enter a discount %, I would like the discount amount and discount mo rate to calculate.
    4. If they enter a discount mo rate, I would like the discount amount and discount % to calculate.

    ----
    Current setup
    -----
    A1: Full Rate
    B1: Discount Amount
    C1: Discount %
    D1: Discounted Mo. Rate

    A2: $
    B2: =IF(OR(D2="$",D2=0,D2="",A2="",A2="$",A2=0),"$",A2-D2)
    C2: =IF(OR(D2="$",D2=0,D2="",A2="",A2="$",A2=0),"%",1-(D2/A2))
    D2: =IF(OR(B2="$",B2=0,B2="",A2="",A2="$",A2=0),"$",A2-B2)
