Add Same in amount in whole Column
If you want another column with the new values:
Suppose first old value is in A1, then in B1 enter =A1*1.05 Drag this down the column If you want to alter the original data In an unused cell type 1.05 ( or =1+ 5% and do not worry if this displays as 105.00%) Copy this cell Select the column of data Use Edit | Paste Special with Multiply specified Now you can delete the 1.05 best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme remove caps from email "S1L1Y1" wrote in message ...

Add Same in amount in whole Column
For example in row 1 the amount is $10.00 and I want to increase it by 5% to
$10.50, and row 2 the amount is $15.00 I want to increase by 5% to $15.75, and row 3 the amount is $20.00 and I want to increase by 5% to $21.00, etc. "Bernard Liengme" wrote in message ...

From where are you copying?
Same workbook and sheet? The behaviour you describe is indicative of having two workbooks open in 2 separate instances of Excel and you are copying from one to the other.

I can't explain it.
I can't even explain why copying 1.05 from a cell then paste special brings up the incorrect dialog...........text, unicode text.........not the regular paste special dialog.

I didn't notice that.
If it's true (I'd check again!), then I think I've read posts about an addin causing this problem. I'd start excel in safe mode and test it again. Close excel windows start button|run excel /safe open the file and test again. This may not be the problem, but if the original poster is using Essbase... Jim Thomlinson posted this... Essbase - Options - Global - Uncheck "Enable Secondary Button" This is a wonderful feature that allows you to pivot your essbase data by dragging and dropping the members between rows and columns. The problem is that it takes over your ability to right click. Gord Dibben wrote: That was my question to OP. From where are you copying? Same workbook and sheet?
