Link a cell to a shape

This quick tip video shows you how to link a cell to a shape in Excel.

You know what is funny, sometimes we actually want to use macros to do things. However, you do not necessarily have to use macros to do things.

The video

So, we have two videos illustrating the method of linking a value of a cell to a shape.

Video 1

Basically, in this video, we take the contents of three cells (C2, C3, and C4) and put them into three bubbles. For the most part, you cannot combine cells with a formula in a link. Therefore, we do the combination in column C. Then, we link the contents.

Video 2

So, we did this video a long time ago. Hopefully, it shows you something that is new to you.
