Copying formulas to new rows, 20000 times
 

How can I automatically paste a formula into existing rows. I need to add
formulas to 20,000 rows. Help!

Put it in the first cell, copy the cell, select the next 19,999 and use Edit
/ Paste.

What is your formula, where is it, and where do you want it, and what do you
want it to be when you copy it - Give us an example.

Copy the cell with the formula
select the range
A quick way:
edit|goto
type: A1:A20000 (or whatever the range is)
Hit enter

Edit|Paste

Thanks, didn't realize it would copy into all cells selected.
