Copy data across workbooks
I want to create a master workbook with data entered for multiple divisions
and create a summary page that will auto update when the master is updated. I have tried a simple =, but it will only bring 1 cell at a time. When I drag from the right corner it just repeats that first cell or if I pull a few cells and high all and drag it repeats those cells. How can I copy multiple rows and columns? |

Copy data across workbooks
Not sure I completely understand your problem, but it sounds to me like your
formulas are absolute. In other words, when you are typing in the formula it looks something like =[Book1]Sheet1!$A$1. If you take out the dollar signs in front of the column letter and row number, I bet you solve some of your copying problem.
