Dear all,

I'd be grateful for some advice on how to reference a
fixed cell in a formula that I wish to copy down a row
of
cells.

I'm writing some code to put a formula into a cell
using
an If statement. I want to pick up a value from a cell
that is anchored ($S$1) but I can't seem to get it
correct in the formula. I've also tried setting it up
as
a variable but that doesn't work either. The code
below
works except for the "=$S$1" part.

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF((RC[-4]
= ""h,"=$s$1",""K"")"

Any guidance would be gratefully received!

thanks,

Neil
