Default How to do this?

I am trying to automate a process of pulling data contained in a table in a
pdf file into an Excel file. I found a tool to convert the pdf to a Word doc
and from that I can copy/paste into a worksheet. In the spreadsheet, I have
a second worksheet that uses formulas to contruct a table in the format I
need but I am having a problem copying the formulas to subsequent rows.

The source data (the worksheet into which I paste the source data) has the
information for one logical record spread accross two rows. For example,
cell A1 contains a team name while cells B1 through B26 contain various
scores. In the resulting worksheet I want to have each set of team data on a
single row so I use formulas like the following in the summary worksheet:
A1 - =Source!A1
A2 - =Source!B1
A3 - =Source!B2
.....
A27 - =Source!B26

That works fine, but if I then copy the formulas in row A of the summary
worksheet to row B they become values like:
B1 = Source!B2 (I want C2)
B2 - Source!C1 (I want D1)
etc.

How can I accomplish this? There will be 125 rows and that is way to much
typing for me. I suspect the answer is a macro. I've never written xcel
macros but I am comfortable with regular VB.

Any suggestions/examples appreciated.

Wayne
