is there a way to write this as a formula?
I want each cell (B1:B10) to refer to a fixed cell(A1) in the following way: Cell B1 = $A$1 * n. Where n is a value from 1 to 10 So if I drag this formula, Cell B1 becomes: $A$1 * 1 B2 will be = $A$1 * 2 etc... |

Try something like
=$A$1*ROW() -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "Athos" wrote in message ... is there a way to write this as a formula?

Thanks Chip,
is there any other way to achieve this? The problem with Row is I have to hard-code the row number from which I start. What I mean is that if this formula is in row 120, The I have to hardcode the formula to say something like... = row()-119... -----Original Message----- Try something like =$A$1*ROW() -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "Athos" wrote in message ... is there a way to write this as a formula?

If I understand you correctly, here's one way:
=$A$1*ROW($A1) In article , wrote: Thanks Chip, is there any other way to achieve this? The problem with Row is I have to hard-code the row number from which I start.

Hi Anthos.........
Try this........... Type in your formula without the = sign in B1 and drag it down as far as you wish........... Then do a "Find and Replace" for the $A in Column B and replace it with =$A Vaya con Dios, Chuck, CABGx3 "Athos" wrote in message ... is there a way to write this as a formula?

Hi!
Put 1 to 10 in a column somewhere (I'll assume X1:X10) Your first value is then $A$1*X1. Drag down. Alf --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/ |

The $ is a bit superfluous
