Default Range Expression

Oh sorry,

I have a series of alpha values displayed in column H and a series of
numeric values in the I column. The J column "=H19 & I19" just combines them
like this:

H Column I column J column

Row 19 A 2 A2
("=H19 & I19")
Row 20 D 3 D3
("=H20 & I20")
Row 21 B 1 B1
("=H21 & I21")

This continues for the whole spreadsheet. So my question then is if I opt to
add a row between row 19 and 20 above I am wanting the calculation (column J)
to be placed in the new row. This process works fine for a range calculation
"=sum(B2:B9)" but does not appear to work with the calc i'm using.

Hope this clarifies.

Your question is unclear...
so, J19 currently displays A2.
What do you want it to display when you add a new row? Are you adding a row
above or below? Why does the formula need to replicate (is it simply
changing, or do you need it copied to another cell)?

I am currently using this formula "=H19 & I19" in a column to combine two
cells adjacent so cell J19 contains the formula for the contents of H19 &
I19. So the issue is this formula is not a range so as I add new rows the
formula does not replicate to the new row. How can I change the formula so
that it will replicate?

FYI, the values in the cells are alpha/numeric so H19 = "A" and I19 = "2",
so J19 = "A2" which is the reason I could not use the standard range
calculation.
