Default Switch between relative, absolute, and mixed references

In Excel 2003 I used F4 to Switch between relative, absolute, and mixed
references. Is there another shortcut to do this in 2007???

Hi Connie,

It is still F4.

Maybe you got the new version of Excel with a new PC, with a keyboard with
multifunction function keys?
If so, press F Lock to enable the "normal" behavior of function keys.

Hi,

Of course you need to be in the formula, not just on the cell. And you need
to select a complete cell reference part in the formula, so selecting cell A1
and pressing F4 will not do Absolutes. with the cursor blinking between the
S and U in the formula =SUM(A1:A1000) and pressing F4 will not work,
selecting A1:A10, (including the comma) in the following formula will not
work SUM(A1:A10,B22:B32).

remember F4 does 3 different things in Excel so where you are makes all the
difference.

If this helps, please click the Yes button

Cheers,
Shane Devenshire
