I want to fill down a formula like this
=(($C$73*$G$81)+(($C$76*0.89)*$F$81))*($C$87*1.03) where b=with the absolute
cell references, but have the 1.03 change incrementally (1.03, 1.04, 1.05
etc.). I can't find anything in the help on this - does anyone know how to do
this? Thanks

Change your first formula to

=(($C$73*$G$81)+(($C$76*0.89)*$F$81))*($C$87*(1+ro w(a3)/100))

and copy that down

Can you explain the 1+(a3)/100 so I can use this in other formulas? I'm not
sure what the a3 is. Thanks!

A3 is refering to cell a3

row(a3) = 3 as row a3 is in row 3

Therefore 1+a3/100 = 1.03

It's actually 1+ROW(A3)/100

ROW(A3) returns the #3, and dividing it by 100 & adding it to the #1 gives
you the 1.03 referenced in your original formula. Since ROW(A3) uses a
relative reference, as you copy it down the column you increment the 1.03 to
1.04, 1.05, 1.06, etc.

OK so it doesn't matter if there is anything in A3, A4, A5 etc.?

Correct. Its contents (or lack of contents) are totally irrelevant.
