That should work. Are you receiving an error? Are you able to provided a screenshot with sensitive/confidential data removed, blocked, or replaced with "dummy data" as needed?

no it is not working.. let me point out one other thing..
In cell 3, if I have just the formula in there , it works. But if I have something like "Answer: =[Task Name]1" all in cell 3, it does not work..
