Get the equation, extended use of formulatext?

[mksodland]

Hi,

I've uploaded the spreadsheet for clarity. I'm looking for a specific answers, so please read carefully.

I want to get the equations used in a cell. I would like to know how to either:

• Replace all cell references with the variable name (ie. change the formula in B32 to Calculated_Velocity*convert so formulatext in shows variable names
• Add functions to formulatext to return result with either
  • the cell references (B31*B21) replaced with the cell name (=Calculated_Velocity*convert) or
  • cell references (B31) replaced with the VALUE in the "Variable" column (=V_s1*convert)

Since all your formulas are in one sheet you may use Apply Names

@mksodland Perhaps like int he attached file? Selected the entire table, and "Applied" all names from the Name Manager.

Thank you both so much!! The screenshot really helped because I didn't realize I have to highlight all the names (but replace them manually one by one) when I tried that the first time. I noticed that shift+ click top and bottom (nor ctrl+) didn't work, and now that they are all highlighted (by shift+ click individually), I don't want to ruin it to test alternatives like alt+a.

Do you also know how to highlight all at once?

Also, do you know how to automatically name a cell the name given to the right as it is being added? 

Like, when I add a new row to the table, the cell in BNew is named the value in Anew?

Unfortunately I don't know an answer on both your questions.

Highlighting - click/or "+" /or "-" buttons one by one, Ctrl and Shift affect nothing

Automatic naming - not if it exists with standard tools

In general related to names boxed were made ages ago and practically never modified, I'd do not expect advanced functionality in this interface.
