Copying a formula with a pattern
 
I am attempting to do a COUNTIF on a long series of values. I need to count
among the first 100 values for all of the 1, 2, 3, 4. Then count among the
next 100 (101-200) for 1,2,3,4. (repeat 25 times) I am having to go into each
formula and type in the range of cells. Is there a faster way to do this
without naming each range before I create the formulas? Given that the
pattern repeats, it should be easy. . . I want to spend as little time as
possible scrolling up and down. Thank you!
