Default Conditional Filling


Hey

Ive got a formula that searchs another worksheet, between A1 and B250,
and automatically searchs the number in the cell next to it...

=INDEX('Customer Table'!A1:B250,MATCH(A1,'Customer
Table'!A1:A250,0),2)

Now I want to apply that to every cell vertically, by filling (dragging
that little black box) all the way down.

However it results in this....

=INDEX('Customer Table'!A10:B260,MATCH(A10,'Customer
Table'!A10:A260,0),2)

It changes the search area, which breaks everything. I only need it to
increase the field in which it takes the search info.

How can i do this!

Use absolute references:

=INDEX('Customer Table'!A$1:B$250,MATCH(A1,'Customer Table'!A$1:A$250,0),2)
