can I make a formula field into an "external ID"

I have a custom object which needs to draw an External ID field from its Parent.  I created a Formula Field to pull that data in to the custom field.  However, I want to use that field on the custom object as an External ID for the the custom object... but alas.  Is there another way I can accomplish this?

    Formula fields cannot be external id's unfortunately. Only text, email or number field. If using Enterprise or Unlimited Edition, you could try using a workflow rule and field update that update a field of one of those data types with the new value. Then you could use that as an external id potentially.

     

    Hope that helps,
