how do i make a cell absolute

It is the references to a cell that can be relative and/or absolute, I.e the way Excel increments/decrements parts of the reference when the reference is copied around.

To turn a formula in a cell to an absolute formula, click on the cell, then
click into the formula bar near the top of the menu bars and then press F4. Every press of F4 afterwards, changes the absolute to Row then Column then None "Carly Aspden" <Carly wrote in message ... i would like to know how to make a cell in a spreadsheet absolute. |

Just in case:
=abs(a1) will return the absolute value of the value in A1. Yeah, I didn't think so, but just in case that's what you meant... Carly Aspden wrote: i would like to know how to make a cell in a spreadsheet absolute. -- Dave Peterson |

absolute references within cells using the keyboard and could not remember.
