how can I connect two tables in different worksheets?

I have trouble to connect different tables in different worksheets. If I want to change an item in one table I would like that the same item in a connected table in a different worksheet also changes. I have tried to copy selected cells and paged them to the other worksheet, but that doesnot function.

Richieref,


Since I am not sure, in Numbers terminology, what a worksheet is the question is unclear. In Numbers here are the relevent terms:


A FILE is stored on your hard drive which contains a DOCUMENT which contains SHEETs which contain TABLEs, GRAPHICs, TEXT. TABLEs contain CELLs which contain text, dates, numbers, formulas.


If you are asking whether a cell in a particular table can refer to another cell in a different document then this is not possible in Numbers. A cell can refer to a cell in another table of the same (or differerent) sheet so long as the sheets are in the same document.


I hope this help clarify. You can download the free Numbers Users' Guide which can be very handy too.
