Default Copy formula

CAS,

If I understand you correctly, you want to transpose the *formula* i.e. you want to see the actual formula across, right?

I tried the following.

In A10, I entered =$A1 and dragged it down to A18. Then I highlighted A11:A18 and did copy. I positioned the cursor in B10 and dragged across row 10. Editpaste specialtranspose. While A11:A18 was still selected, I pressed the delete key.

Is this what you want?

Max,

I learned from your post. Thank you. Please feel free to correct me.

I need to copy a formula to the right and have the column in the formula
remain constant but the row increase by one for each column to the right I
go. For example if in cell A10 I enter =A1 then copy that to the cells to the
right, it makes cell B10 =B1 and I need it to =A2, C10 needs to =A3, etc.
Can someone help me understand how to do this? I tried =$a1 but that is
keeping the column and row constant.
