changing parts of formula
Is there any way I can adapt how a formula copies across, apart from doing it
manually? I want part of the formula to change. For example Sheet1!$a2 when copied across will show Sheet1!$a2 and so on. I want it to show Sheet2!$a3 and then Sheet3!$a2. |

Enter this in A1 of a new sheet then drag across.
