Constant cell
I am using Excel 2000
I need to create an "if then type formula" that keeps 2 cells constant. I want to use two cells within the formula over and over again as I copy the formula many times. I thought I could format the cell reference like this -- $B$32. But that did not seem to work. I can not think of what this is called to even look it up. Can anyone help me or at least point me in the right direction for help. I also need to know if I can use two of these type of cell references within one formula. Thank you for any help you can give me. Aurora |
Constant cell
Hi, it's very simple. You merely give the cell a name and thereafter you
refer to the cell by it's name. 1. Name the cell Select from the menu the following options; Insert/ Name/ Define (then give the cell or range a name); 2. Refer to it by name When you need to insert the cell reference into a formula select from the menu the following options Insert/ Name/ Paste (then select the name from the list); or you can simply type in the name. ps. it helps if the name you give describes the cell value, e.g. Cost, or Amount_of_apples etc. Good luck -- Creator "Aurora" wrote: I am using Excel 2000 I need to create an "if then type formula" that keeps 2 cells constant.
