RE: references

Hi Maria

You can turn a cell reference absolute by prefixing the column letter and row number with the dollar symbol $. This then acts as an anchor. When you drag a formula that contains a reference which has been locked with $ symbols the column and/or row reference remain unchanged.

I hope this is helpful.

Kind regards,

Andrew

 

Excel tip:

Turn off AutoComplete in Excel

You may have noticed when typing into your spreadsheets that if you start to enter labels that begin with the same letters as a label that has been previously entered in the same spreadsheet, Excel will try and automatically complete the text for you. This feature is called AutoComplete.

If you find this feature more annoying than useful, you can turn it off by:

1. Going to Tools - Options.

2. Select the Edit tab.

3. Remove the tick from next to the "Enable AutoComplete for cell values" option.

4. Click OK.
