adding a formul to the next cell only with the next cell number
Okay to make sure there are no trailing spaces and garbage I did this on one
cell. clean(trim(a2)) What I want to do is add this formula to the whole column. I try double clicking the cell to add this formula to all the subsequent cells and it changes them all to a2, instead of making it clean(trim(a3)) clean(trim(a4)) clean(trim(a5))etc. How do I make it like this instead of like this? clean(trim(a2)) clean(trim(a2)) clean(trim(a2)) etc. thanks, |

I assume you have used an = sign.
=CLEAN(TRIM(A2)) Otherwise you are just filling text values. If calculation mode is manual you will get the same values returned although the cell refs should increment.
