Question
Hey, I have a pretty complicated question, it's probably easy for well versed users, but I'm not sure what the cleanest way to do this is. Here's what I'm doing. I'm taking a column of numbers, then in the column next to it I want to do the following. =(B2/(AVERAGE(B2:B29))*75) I've figured it out to that point, but rather than adjusting each of the other cells when I use the format painter to find this value in the column, I'd like to just be able to format them all the same and have them all find their value. I hope this explains what I'm trying to do well enough, I couldn't really put it into words. Thank you -- odditie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ odditie's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=18151 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=567743 |
