Filling or copy down

Why do the triangles that appeared in the top left hand corner of the trainer's screen, not appear in mine when I copied down using an absolute formula?

RE: Filling or copy down

Hi Rachel

Thank you for your question.

The triangles you are referring to come up when Excel thinks there may possibly be an error in a formula - the same as spellcheck in Word will underline any words it thinks are spelt incorrectly.

If the triangles don't show on your screen, it may be because the setting to display them has been turned off on your computer. Check Tools - Options - Error Checking to see which settings are currently ticked.

I hope this helps to explain the discrepancy between your screen and the trainer's.

Amanda

Excel tip:

Shortcut keys to move between sheets

Instead of clicking on a sheet tab to view a sheet, use the following keyboard shortcuts to move between sheets in the same file:

Ctrl + Page Down - Switch to the next worksheet (to the right)

Ctrl + Page Up - Switch to the previous worksheet (to the left)
