copy & paste in excel
When I copy & paste a formula in excel the formula copies but does not work.
eg. =SUM(F16:F18) is copied from =SUM(E16:E18) but the total is the same as the original E16:18. This is happening regardless of whether I copy within a worksheet of from one worksheet to another. If I double click to edit the new formula it works. What is happening?? I don't want to have to edit alll cells I copy and paste. Trish |
