Hi all,

I have the following function define in one cell: =D49-D49*(B8^2)

D49 is dynamic. However, B8 is a constant cell referring to a constant
value.

When I tried to copy the function to another cell, B8 is changed to B9.
I only want D49 to change.

How do I keep Excel from changing B8?

Thanks!

Hi,

You need to use absolute references ($) rather then relative ones.
=D49-D49*($B$8*$B$8)

Cheers
Andy
