As written, this cell will not change if you edit the address (etc.) in a separate editing field. If that does not matter in your new format you are done. If you need live updating too, an uncommon command can do it, which is to set "watch expression" on the cell. I added that feature for just such an application, but it turns out it is almost never needed. Here you should be able to watch all those separate expressions, such
