RE: formulas
Hi Latisha, Thank you for your post, Welcome to the Forum, I hope you enjoyed your Excel Intermediate Course, in answer to your question, the dollar signs in a cell reference indicate that the reference is absolute, in other words it will not allow the formula to relatively update as the focus is moved to another cell, think of it as putting a pin through the cell reference to keep focus on it. I hope that answers your question, best regards Pete.

Excel tip:Quickly insert a functionIn Excel 97 and 2000 it was known as the Paste Function dialog box, these days it's known as the Insert Function dialog box. Regardless, one has to choose Insert|Function. or the fx button to open it up. There is, however, a non-mousey way to get hold of the Insert Function dialog box: press Shift+F3 in a blank cell to open the Insert Function dialog. |
