    Referencing a cell

    Hi, I have a cell that I would like to know if there are other cells in the same work book that reference to it's value. Is there any way to do that?

    Thank you!

    Yes, under the Tools dropdown menu "Formula Auditing". Trace dependents will show you what cells reference its value. If the reference is on another sheet, it shows a little spreadsheet icon. Double click on the dotted line to show the references. Hope that helped.

    Clicking on the dotted line doesn't seem to work in Excel 2007. Is there another option?
