Renee Nguy

Copy Formula
 
If my formula is A1=B1 and A2=B1 and A3=B1, then why can't I drag this
formula all the way down column A. A column cells keeps picking up the
corresponding B column cells instead of staying with the value in B1. I also
turned off the Extend Data Range Formats and Formulas and this didn't work
either. Please help.
Thank you so much.

Copy Formula
 
To keep all of them looking at B1, use $B$1
Or select all the cells, type =B1 and hit Ctrl+Enter.

If you want B1 to stay B1 when you drag down, type it as $B$1.
