How do I keep the exact existing formula when drag copying?
I suspect you are looking for an absolute reference, try looking it up in
help for an explanation. Basically =Sum($A$1:$A$12) will always refer to that range, wherever you drag/copy it -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England HIS www.nickhodge.co.uk "Excelchallenged" wrote in message ... |

Make the references Absolute.
=$A$1 is absolute column and row $A1 is absolute column and relative row. A1 is relative row and column A$1 is relative row and absolute column. See help on relative and absolute cell references for more on this. Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Thu, 19 Oct 2006 13:43:02 -0700, Excelchallenged wrote: |
