You could use:
=sheet1!$c$2 And drag down. Or you could just use a formula that points at that first formula: If you have =Sheet1!c2 in A1 then just use =$a$1 Then you only have one formula that points back to that other sheet--if/when you want to change it. wrote: Hi One of the cells( of sheet2) of my excel has formula as =Sheet1!C2 I want the next (say 30 ) cells to have the same formula =Sheet1!C2.
