When you set up a worksheet should you use cell references in formulas whenever possible rather than blank values?
Yes, cell references should be used. It is not necessary to have values in cells before the formulas that are referring to those cells can be typed. So a formula can be created with cell reference that refer to blank cells first. After that you could enter the values and when you do, the formulas will update their results by using the values that are in the cells. A formula does not change if cells are empty or not. So you could type any formula before entering values that the formula will use. The formula may at first result in a zero value or even an error, but will give the correct result when values are entered into the cells it refers to.
