Linked cells
 

Hi
I am trying to link values between 2 worksheets. I have to pick up several
cells and repeat the value in another cell in another worksheet. I have data
in, for example cells A3 to Z3 in a spreadsheet which needs to be picked up
in another workbook area. I am sure there is a way of setting an absolute
formula so that when I drag the formula down it shows =BREAKDOWN!A3,
=BREAKDOWN!B3,=BREAKDOWN!C3 ETC and not =BREAKDOWN!A3, =BREAKDOWN!A4,
=BREAKDOWN!A5. No matter where I put the $ it does not work. Anybody any
ideas please.
Thank you very much. S

you wont get sheet2!$A$3,sheet2!$B$3 etc by dragging down,dont you mean
across???
you need to make each formula absolute then do a copy then paste special,and
tick the transpose box.Your source range and destination range cannot
overlap,perhaps you could then delete the original range and cut the newly
transposed range up a cell or two

Hi Paul
Thank you for your help. I think I need to clarify the problem.
The cells that I want to link go across in rows and the cells that I want to
link to go down in columns. As follows:
In the columns below each other i need:
=Breakdown!G27
=Breakdown!H27
=Breakdown!I27
Picked up from rows in worksheet going across the columns

It takes me forever to keep going = then moving to the cell in the 2nd
worlshhet and returning on that cell. Ideally, I would like to drag down,
the first formula and have it replicated on each following column cell. I
am not brilliant at explainming.
Data is held in columns G:AN in various rows ie 27, 54, 100 (Jan - Dec) etc.
This need to be picked up in the other sheet in columns C-N (Jan-Dec).
Over to you!!

Regards.
