If in Column A there is data and Column B carries out a calculation on Column
A and displays the result, how do I get Column B to automatically update when
I enter data into Column A?

Thanks in advance

Can you have the whole of Column B set with a formula that automatically
updates given the value of Column A? I know you can click the bottom right of
a cell and that carries the formula onto the next row but I don't want to
have to do this with every row, so it would be good if the entire column was
set with the formula?

If data already exists in Column A, then a *double* click on the "fill
handle" of the formula cell in Column B will copy the formula down Column B,
as far as there is data in Column A.

If there is no data in Column A, then you must click *and drag* the "fill
handle" of the formula cell down Column B as far as needed.
