Default Want to change current prices in a column by a percentage

Enter 1.35 in a blank cell and COPY. Highlight columns to be updated,
Edit==paste special==Operation==Multiply. Delete "helper" cell.

Test before committing!

Hi

I currently have a spreadsheet that contains cost prices in columns. I want
to increase these prices by say 35% but don't want to have to insert columns
and formulae to recalcuate each column. I know that there is a quick way of
doinf this by highlighting the column but can't remember how.

Thanks


Sharon
