"Paste: Link" does not work in tables
Is there some way to enable the use of "paste link" inside tables? I am creating a workbook to track contracts and invoices for multiple projects. The first tab is a master list of all the items ...
As you have found, Paste Link is not compatible with tables, so if you want to use the advantages of Paste Link, you'll have to convert your table to an ordinary range.
Alternatively, you could create a macro that formats selected cells the way you want. If you assign the macro to a Quick Access Toolbar button and/or a custom keyboard shortcut, you can easily run it.
HansVogelaar Out of curiosity, do you know why it is incompatible? I'm not an Excel expert, but I'm struggling to think of a reason for this limitation.
I don't know why that is. Probably something technical.
It was AandNSeaver who created a macro.
