I have obviously hit a combination of keys that has turned this function off. I can no longer drag and fill cells with a formula, it will only copy the original text/value into adjacent cells. How can I fix this??

I am trying to work out a method which will allow me to drag the forumula which is in cell B13 from B13:B17, and have in increase the date serial number by one for each row by which it descends.
In other words I want to drag the formula down to, say B14, and have it increase the date serial to = that which is in cell A14.
[the obvious benefit of being able to do this is that I don't have to manually adjust the date serial in each cell on each new row]
Is there a way to copy a formula from Cell A1 down to A1500 withhout dragging the fill handle?
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to write a formula that skips x number of cells and have the formula autoincrement as usual. For an examples lets say I want to skip 3 cells and I have entered in the cells listed:
A1= "1"
A2= "2"
A3= "3"
Then I type in the simple formula in the cell
B1= "=A1"
and then drag down but it skips 3 cells so then
B5= "=A2"
B9= "=A3"
If it didn't skip then
B1= "=A1"
B2= "=A2"
B3= "=A3"
this is just an example as I will be writing more complex formulas and need some thing that I can write into the formula so that it skips.
Something similar to this B1 "=A1(skip3cells)"
i have a sheet with alot of data, its a contacts list. colum A is Company name, B contact name, C address, D postcode. One row = one contact. On the next sheet i want to have on column with each contact set out as if it wer on an envelope, so i did the formula:............
if i select all of this space and try to drap the formula down the next cell fills with =sheet1!A11......I want it to say =sheet1!A3. If i cant drag it down then I am going to have to manually write this formula 100000000000 times.....anyoning.
How Do You Drag This Formula Down A Column & Make It Progress And Still Have $'s
This:
=$a$1
=$a$2
Not This
=$a$1
=$a$1
I Dont Want To Have To Drag The Formula And Then Manually Put In The $'s
Here's my Formula:
Range("H2:S2").Select
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("H2:S2702"), Type:=xlFillDefault
Range("H2:S2702").Select
This is dragging the formula to the end of the report. My dilemma is that this was captured with the macro recorder. Is there a way to change "S2702" with whatever row Column S ends with? Meaning this formula will be used on different sized reports so the numbers will vary. I just need a direct statement to compensate however large the report is.
I am having issues with this sheet. i am trying to get this formula to stick, when i drag down or across. its not holding the formula true to the first column. i am unsure of what this is called or else i would be using more specific words.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get this tricky formula to work with vlookup and if error. The problem is that excel will not recognize the formula when I try to drag it down, but instead repeats the same numbers over again. I've tried some combinations using vlookup, rows, and if error, but it doesn't seem to work. So I'm trying to drag down the formula from g3:g99, to reference either cells b8:99, or whichever value I enter into f1, on down to b99.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIf I need to replicate a formula in some cells, I usually drag it down or sideways. Is there any easier way to do this? I have large numbers of cells into which to drag the formula. Can I specify which cell range the formula is applicable to (i.e. A1:A10,000 or something) instead of dragging? If so how?

I have data in worksheets that make up the 52 weeks of the year. Each sheet is numbered like this "WK1" "WK2" and so on... up to "WK52"
Each sheet is setup exactly the same so all cells are the same.
So I have a summary sheet that structures the data from all the week sheets to plot to graph all within the same file.
Thing is when I link the first cell to the first sheet say WK1 and then try to drag the formula down to the worksheet number does not increment
Tried the code in the beginning of this post and it displays the worksheet and cell number in the cell cant get the actual data to be displayed.
When I drag this formula down I want it to index the worksheet number
=WK44!$AG$14
Like this
=WK44!$AG$14
=WK45!$AG$14
=WK46!$AG$14
This is what I get in the cell when I use the formula given in the post
WK01! $AG$14
Let's say I have a value in B2, and a formula in C2. If I drag the formula from C2 all the way down to C20 (spreading it 18 times), the formula wants the value in B2, B3, B4, etc.. down to B20. How do I drag a formula, but have it always reference B2?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIm working on a financial forecast in ecxel and I'm trying to drag a formula from left to right, while referencing horizontal cells from a different tab:
Specifically, I have created a "loan schedule" which shows 12 monthly interest payments starting in cell B46 and ending in cell B57.
In a separate tab labelled "Balance Sheet", I would like to show the first interest payment ('loan schedule'!B46) in cell C28. Next, I would like to select the cell and drag it to the right so that the remaining 11 interest payments will be transferred into D29, E29, F29 etc. Unfortunately,the spreadsheet doesn't reference to the vertically listed interest payments from the loan schedule but instead references the cell to the right of the interest payment. Using "$" seems to be of no support.
I have been using the following formula to do conditional summing over multiple worksheets:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF(INDIRECT("'"&$AB$2:$AB$13&"'!b3:b39"),$B16,INDIRECT("'"&$AB$2:$AB$13&"'!c3:c39")))
The formula works fine, but when I drag it to the next column c3:c39 stays the same. How do I get that reference to change when I drag the formula over multiple columns.
I am using the formula below to sum across several worksheets, and the formula I am using works fine, but when I copy the formula across to other cells, I can't figure out how to have it update my cell range:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF(INDIRECT("'"&$A$1:$A$4&"'!A:A"),$B4,INDIRECT("'"&$A$1:$A$4&"'!G:G")))
The range A:A is ok to be static, but I need the G:G to be dynamic so when I drag it to the right it will change from G:G to H:H. I:I, etc.
I have a workbook with multiple sheets interacting with one another. On one of them the user is prompted to make lists of expenses in multiple columns. The column labels are in row one, and row two has the sums of all the cells below. I have every sheet in the workbook protected, so that only the cells that need to be modified are unlocked. The problem is that the user can drag cells around and change the range of the functions in row two (locked cells).
For example, A2 has the function =sum(A3:A100). But if the user drags the values in A3:A5 to A6:A8, the formula in A2 changes to =sum(A6:A100). Is there anyway that I can allow the user to drag cells (this could be a useful feature), but keep the formulas in the second row fixed?
appending excel sheet number in a formula. Here is the example.
In an excel book, I have sheets 1 to 50. In each sheet i have a standard format to enter the details. And in one sheet I want to keep some summary with required cells. I made a table by applying formula, for example in cell A1 i kept formula ='9'!$D$9. In this '9' refers sheet9. In the similar way i want to capture the data from all sheets.
A1 cell ='9'!$D$9
A2 cell ='10'!$D$9
A3 cell ='11'!$D$9....etc
Is there any formula to append the Sheet number automatically (like dragging the shell) intead changing sheet number manually. because it is wasting so much time.
I can't modify my formula to leave blank cells blank when dragging it down, Also, I've got two formulas that i need to combine. Please view the comments I've put in cells E4, F2,F3,H2 and I2 to understand clearly what am seeking. See the attached worksheet.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI want to drag a formula however i want one of the values of the formula to change and the other not to change. for example:
c1=a1+b1
c2=a1+b2
c3= a1+b3

how can i make it do this when i drag? a1 is not just a constant and it depends on other parameters.
How do you make the Autofill function increment in blocks, e.g. instead of increment 1,2,3 increment 1,8,15 inthe following example: I have a 2 worksheets, one with days of the year across columns and values down rows, and another that summarises the sum of the corresponding days in weeks, so I have 365 columns in sheet 1 and 52 columns in sheet2. Everytime I update the sum range i cannot autofill it in the summary worksheet, as A1:G1 autofills to B1:H1, but I want it to increment to H1:N1.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn row 3 I have values horizontally. (A3 to Z3)
i link C5 to A3.
If I drag it vertically it does not give the correct values.

I have the following forumlas in consecutive Rows on Tab#2 of my file:
Row 1: =(Tab#1!B12 + Tab#1!B13)
Row 2: =(Tab#1!B24 + Tab#1!B25)
Row 3: =(Tab#1!B36 + Tab#1!B37)
Is there any way to drag this formula down the rows below it so that each time it continues this pattern. Just to be clear the pattern is that each time you drag down a row it goes 12 rows in the formula.
Using VBA; How do I copy a formula in a cell to the next row and at the same time incrementing the row numbers in the formula?
For instance: Formula in D1 is = A1 + B1 + C1
Copy the formula in D1 to D2 but then D2 must contain the formula = A2 + B2 + C2
How to make formula for following situation:
Worksheet1RangeA contains a list of names in A2:A50 with corresponding scores in B2:B50
These values per name should be copied into Worksheet2RangeB, which contains a larger range of names in A2:A100 and scores in B2:B100. The names have a different sequence than Worksheet1.
Is there an IF (or other) formula that can take a scores from Worksheet1, look for the corresponding names in Worksheet2 and copy the Worksheet1 scores into the Worksheet2 column, each for the correct name?
That means every name appearing in Worksheet1 will have a copy operation of the score to its corresponding name in Worksheet2. If a name in Worksheet2 does not appear in Worksheet1, the score colum in Worksheet2 will get 0 or a fixed value, say 25.
I have a simple formula which refers to a cell on another sheet which I need to copy down a summary page so that every time I go down 2 cells in my summary it only moves down 1 cell in the sheet it refers to
Example
Sheet1 CellA1 = Sheet2!$A$1
when I copy this formula to Sheet1 CellA2 i need it to be = Sheet2!$A$3
obviously if I took the absolute references off and copied it down it would move 1 cell at a time but i need it to move 2
Not sure if this needs some code to work which I can assign to a Ctrl+? as I need to repeat the copy down over 100 times (however not limited to 100)
I am trying to copy the following formula down to additional cells
='Drawing 1'!$D$13:$F$13

='Drawing 3'!$D$13:$F$13
I am using a formula to create a value. I copy the information to another sheet and want to sort the data another way. When I sort the data I lose the value. Is there anyway to just copy the value to the new sheet instead of the formula as well.

Range("H3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[-1]>=R[-1]C[-1],R[-1]C+1,1)"

Range("H3:H450").Select
Range("A2:I450").Copy Destination:=Sheets("AllRaces").Range("A1354")

How can I have it so the column (letter) changes in succession rather than the row (number)? Here is my formula :
=SUMPRODUCT(('Web Queries Reference'!A$2:A$600<>-1)*('Web Queries Reference'!A$2:A$600))-0.01
I would like it to be this once I drag the cell formula down to the next row :
=SUMPRODUCT(('Web Queries Reference'!B$2:B$600<>-1)*('Web Queries Reference'!B$2:B$600))-0.01
In one sheet i have a table with 154450 lines from a software output converted in a table , in another sheet i made a table to 'sanitize' and make 'human-readable' the first one referring to some of the cells.
It works fine but, i have to drag the last line to repeat the formula and, as you can imagine, hard to think i will drag for 154450 lines ^^.
I have found an inconsistency in different PCs with respect to the method of producing incrementation when dragging a grab handle to an adjacent cell. In some PCs just dragging produces the effect, in others a key has to be held down during the drag. I'm sure there are detailed instructions about such a setting, but I have been unable to find them.
