How to display only the output of an equation.

Is there a way to display only the output of an equation? For example, if I define:

hstuecken_0-1585861264057.png......

Is there a way to only display the 93.6% later in the document? Without having the variable, Mcw_C6_V, displayed? I would like to summarize my calculations at the bottom of the document but allow them to change automatically if I change calculations earlier on in the document.

It is possible, and fairly easy. Prime 4 file attached.

But why would you want to present just numbers?

 

Success!

I don't believe sp.

Hi,

 

it is possible with the use of controls. I've added a MC15 sheet that shows how to do it.

 

Cheers

Very clever, chicanery worthy of Val Ochov!

Thank you very much Fred. Attention from your side counts twice.😊

It was a challenge I couldn't resist.

I first tried it with a text block with white backround. But it wouldn't stay on top of the equation. I also experienced that text blocks and equations tend to align differently.

But another equation does. Other advantages: Aligns good with the equation and the grid still shines through.

 

Still wonder why the OP wants to just present numbers...

Suspect he's looking to build a table. . .

Thank you very much! It looks like this is as close as I will be able to get. 

 

For all of you that are wondering...I am calculating many margins on components throughout my document and at the bottom, I would like to include all of these margins in a tabular form, listing each component name and the margins for each parameter. Basically, the variable is irrelevant at this point and would just clutter the table.

You could build a matrix that could be made to look like a table.
