Hi bj.
Thank you. This works also BUT I'm sending this to our retailers and I
don't want them to know the exact % of increase I just want them to see the
new prices. Because I was just told some prices are increasing while others
are not. Can I increase the entire price column by 7% without having to add
an additional cell. I've tried doing =76.99*(1+0.07%) in the actual price
cell (where 76.99 is the amount to be increased). But by doing it that way I
have to do each price cell individually and Im trying to avoid that. Can you
help me, please?

select all the cells you want to change

Hi everyone. Ok I have a little dilemma.

My company has a 36 page pricelist with a list of about 40 or more
prices/page. In 2007 we are applying a 7% increase in all prices. With the
use of a function I created an additional column that has the 7% increase.
Now I want to cut and paste that column where the other price column was
before, but when I try to do that all I get is ###### because the old price
column is being used in the function that calculates the new price column.
This is the only way I know how to increase by a percent.

QUESTION: Is there a way to increase a given value by a percent without
having to add columns? The way I been doing it is =C11*(1+F11) where C11 is
the amount and F11 is 7% (the increase).
