Default Copying a formula down 20K rows

Double-click won't work unless there is contiguous data in an adjacent column.

One way:

With your formula already entered in A1,
Right click in A1 and choose "Copy",
Click in A2,
Click in the Name Box (left of formula bar)
Type in
a20000
Hold down <Shift
Hit <Enter
Release <Shift
Hit <Enter again,
You're done!

I have a rather large spread sheet and would like to copy formulas from one
row to the next. It seems like there should be an easier way of copying to
20K rows than grabbing the fill handle and moving down that long.
I tried reviewing some of the tips in "programing" but I have no idea how or
where to type those directions (macros???I hope not).
Thanks
