Yes I did, I used a cell on the same work book just beneath the column I
wanted to adjust... I tried using different cells as well, but "multiply"
didn't show up in the "paste special" menu

Did you use a helper cell on the same worksheet? (just out of the way

It kind of sounds like you used a cell in a different workbook that was open in
a different instance of excel.

Thanks, but there must be a problem with the formatting.

After copying "1.15" then going to "edit" and "paste special" the menu
doesn't include "muliply".... only "text" and "unicode text"

Is there a remedy for this formatting situation?

1. Key 1.15 into an open cell.
2. Copy that cell.
3. Select the range of prices.
4. Go to Edit Paste Special. Click Multiply. OK
