More specifics would help... do you want to just replace every price shown
with a value that's 90% as much? Or is this a variable you need to set so that you can adjust as needed? I'll assume the latter (since it will get you the former)... Pick two cells, one to be a label, one the value. For argument's sake, I'll assume they're in A1 and B1. Enter the word Discount in A1 and 90% in B1. Highlight both cells and Insert Name Define. Ensure that Excel is creating the name Discount and that it references B1. Now we need to apply the discount to your prices. I'll assume your existing prices are in column B (with a product codes in column A), starting in row 4. In c4, enter the equation =B4 * (1-Discount). The result should reflect the discount applied to the old price. Autofill that formula by placing the cursor over the lower right corner (it's called the fill handle); you'll see the cursor change shape. Double-click and it should fill the column. Note that if you change the discount in B2, all the prices in column C will change in step. Hope this is roughly what you were looking for. If not, please be as specific as you can about what the output(s) should be. "Bridget Nelson" wrote: I have an original spreadsheet with pricing.
