Default copying formulas

thanks for all your previous help. Now, here is the question.

I need to copy a formula down about 29,222 rows. How do I do that without
having to drag the fill handle from row 1 through row 29,222?

You can do it with a macro.

Sub DoFillDown
Range("A1:A29222").FillDown 'Fill Down from A1 to A29222
End Sub

After copying your formula, select the first cell to copy to in the column,
scroll down 29,222 rows, hold down the shift key and select the last cell.
All cells in between will be selected. Click paste. HTH

say we have a formula in A1 and we want to copy it to A2 thru A29000
1. select A1 and do the copy
2. go to the address bar ( just to the left of the formula bar) and type in
A2:A29000
this will select the big range
3. just paste

I find this easier......couple less steps.

Type the formula in A1

Type A1:A29000 in name box and hit ENTER.

CTRL + d to copy down.
