Easy eay to copy / paste a formula in column
I have a formula that subtracts an individuals birthdate from the current
date (V1). =YEAR(V1)-YEAR(U53) Is there any easy way to copy and paste this in each cell of a column without the current date (V1) incrementing? If I drag the corner of the cell it increments, if I copy and paste it increments? i.e., =YEAR(V1)-YEAR(U53) ; =YEAR(V2)-YEAR(U54) ; =YEAR(V3)-YEAR(U55) and so on and so on. Thanks, Mike |

Use absolute referencing. Below are the different reference styles.
A1 Relative referencing. Both column and row will change if you copy or drag the formula. $A1 The column reference is fixed and will not change A$1 The row reference is fixed and will not change. $A$1 Column and row reference are fixed.
