Subject: Busn 135, Excel Absolute Cell References

 

Dear Michael Girvin,

 

After I watched the VBlog video and did the homework, I am still confused about the difference between relative cell references and absolute cell references. For example, when I did the first homework problem in our Excel workbook named “Busn135ch01and02.xls” on the sheet tab named “Homework (3)”, when I copied the formula down, the cell reference H1 was not absolute. The formula I typed in was = F3*H1. After I type it in and copied it down 11 rows the formula looked like this: =F13*H11.

 

How can I lock the cell reference H1 so that when I copy it down it remains H1.

 

Sincerely, Suix Radcoolinator
