For those of us that sometimes don't want to add $ signs after our formulas
are written, how about a feature in Paste Special that let's you copy the
formula exactly how you wrote it. This would especially help if you want to
test formula changes. I don't understand why you can move the contents of a
cell without change, but you can't copy without change. It would be easy to
add a "Copy absolute formula" to the Paste Special commands so the relative
references aren't changed.
