THANKS SO MUCH.

Then, when you copy the formula the cell reference doesn't change. The $ before the column letter says don't adjust the column reference and the $ row number says don't adjust the row reference.

Please turn off the caps lock, it looks like you are SHOUTING. If you want to multiply a column of cells by a single cell, simply change the formula to an absolute reference. i.e. A1*$H$7 When you fill this down/across, it will change to B1*$H$7, C1*$H$7, etc. HTH, JP On Feb 15, 1:56=A0pm, FROGGYDOLLY wrote: =A0- On Tuesday, May 12, 2009 9:50 AM Nic Gur wrote: Multiplication by constant cell You are required to be a member to post replies.
