Copy A Formula

Download starting Sheet

In the last lesson, we entered a formula. We now want to apply that formula to all the dates in column A.

There's a quick way to copy a formula that saves us from entering it again and again.

Steps:

  1. Select range F1 and G1 (the 2 cells)
  2. In the bottom right of your selection, there is a small black square
    • Double click on this.
    • copy-a-formula
  3. The formulae will now be copied down to the end of the data, and they will recalculate.

copy-a-formula

 

Your sheet should now look like this
