Hi,

This happens because the range of data imported from Access is a Table
(Ctrl+L). One of the features of a Table is that it auto expands. If you
turn the table feature off, the auto expansion would not work and therefore
the formulas would not get copied down. However, if you remove the list,
the link to Access would be lost.

Insert the formula one column after the last column and now the auto fill
formula will not work. Now you may compress the width of the blank column.
Please note that existance of blank rows/columns in your range has its own
problems but you immediate problem will be solved.

I have a spreadsheet which imports data from Access. The Access data
changes
weekly, and I then go into the spreadsheet and refresh the tables. In the
tables, I could at one time type in a new formula in a new column and it
would automatically repeat this formula down the entire column the whole
length of the table. Somehow I must have turned this function off, and I
can
not figure how to turn it back on. Excel 2007. Please help, thanks!!!!
