The big white plus sign will turn into a small black sign
Move your mouse pointer over the Fill Handle solid.You will see a green color solid square at the bottom right corner of the cell. This time, I will select only the cell C6 and enter this formula: =$B6*C$2. I will use the same example to explain this method. The formula is working perfectly.Ģ) Using Excel Fill Handle Tool (Dragging) I select cell reference D8 and press the F2 key (this takes the cell to Edit mode) on the keyboard. And when we shall copy this formula down, the references will be C2, C2, C2, C2, and C2. Because the reference of column C is relative. C$2 reference means that when the formula will be copied to the right, the references will be C2, D2, and E2.This is because the rows change when you copy down a formula. When the formula will be copied down, the cell reference will be B6, B7, B8, B9, B10. All are B6 as when the formula is copied to right, the row is not changing. $B6 reference means that when the formula will be copied to the right, column B will not change. Notice that the formula has mixed cell references.Press CTRL + Enter simultaneously on your keyboard. This formula will be automatically entered into the cell C6 as C6 is the active cell. Now type an equal sign and write this formula: =$B6*C$2. You see the other cells in the range are in grey color (not active). For our selection, cell C6 is the active cell. When you select a range of cells, the first cell becomes the active cell.
I will write just one formula in the cell C6 and will use it over cell range C6: E10. What I want is to show the prices of the products in other currencies such as USD, GBP, and JPY. Also, the exchange rates are shown in the cell range C2:E2. The prices of some products (in Euro) are given under the Price (Euro) column. You are seeing a sample data in the picture below. Use the method that best suits your purpose. In more than one way, you can apply an Excel formula to multiple cells (cell references will also change).
