Pasting Same Formula
Use absolute cell references in your formulas.
$A1 to lock the column
A$1 to lock the row
$A$1 to lock both column and row.
Note: you can mix them in formulas like a VLOOKUP formula.
=VLOOKUP(A1,$B$1:$E$50,3,FALSE)
When dragged down, the A1 will change but the table array remains the same.

when i copy a formula to a range of cells the formula logically
changes according to the other cells. However, i need to maintain the
very same formula throughout the range of cells . i am able to
successfully paste the same formula to a single cell, but not to a
range of cells.
