EDT321EDT Summer Session Auto Fill Examples Number series Month series

EDT321EDT Summer Session Auto Fill Formulas Relative cell references Absolute cell references

EDT321EDT Summer Session Cell References  Relative  Relationship to other cells  Can be copied or moved  Excel adjusts relationships when cells are added or removed  Absolute  Specific cell  Formula always uses cell referenced  Does not change when copied or moved  Denoted by $ symbol (e.g., $A$1)

EDT321EDT Summer Session Auto fill : Relative Cell Reference = Sum(B7:D7) = Sum(B10:D10)

EDT321EDT Summer Session Auto fill: Absolute Cell Reference =(E6+$B$1) =(E8+$B$1)
