Copy formula without changing all values
I would like to copy a formula to several cells=(B197-$B198)/$B198 . I want the B198 to stay the same and the B197 to change as the formula is moved. I thought the $(dollar sign) would make the B198 stay, but it is changing as I copy. How do I make the B198 stay the same.

Copy formula without changing all values
There are 3 options when using Absolute references -the $ sign. In your case all you have locked is the column - $B198 To lock the complete formula it is written as $B$198 or to lock only the row number it would be B$198 If you select the element B198 and then press F4 yo can cycle betwee thos 3 options with the fourth option removing all dollar signs HT ----------------------------------------------- ~~ Message posted from http://www.ExcelTip.com ~~View and post usenet messages directly from http://www.ExcelForum.com ~~Now Available: Financial Statements.xls, a step by step guide to creating financial statements |
