Default how to multiply entire colume?

Andrea

Another approach: In C1 place the number 7, In B1 enter =A1:A5*$C$1. Then
do what Ragdyer suggested to move the formula to the bottom of you data. if
it has no blanks method work really fast! The nice part about this set up is
if you need to change the multiplier (7) to a different number you can do so
without changing anything else.
