Roger,

What I meant was that if you enter a row above B11, and then enter a value
in the new B11, the old B11 (now B12 - this is getting confusing :))
automatically updates to reflect that row.

Odd thing is, it doesn't work with formulae directly, in the instance you
state, it updates by adding a value in A11. If the formula in B1 was =C1+D1
etc., it updates when the values are added to C11 AND D11.

Regards

Bob

Hi Bob,

Yes, I have A1:A10 populated with some data and formatted say Red.
B1:B10 has formulae =A1 etc.

A11 has =Sum(A1:A10), copied into B11.

I understood your reply to indicate that introducing a new row at A11,
with the "Extend List Formats & Formulas" ticked, would copy the
formatting and formulae from the row above.

The red formatting certainly gets copied, but not the formula in B10.

Hi Richard,

I am not sure exactly what you refer to. Could you clarify for me?

If you goto ToolsOptionsEdit and check the Extend list formats and
formulas box, it should work automatically..


Thanks Bob, That's one I hadn't spotted although it's selected in my
Excel application.

One problem is that while it extends the formats of rows above, it
won't extend any formulae. Am I missing something?
