    Unhappy Formula Copy Problem

    Hello,

    I'm having a problem copying down a formula with a sequence in it. For example, my formula is something like A1:A100&","&B1:B100&","&C1:C100. When I copy down to the 100th row it copies the same exact contents of A1+B1+C1 for all rows. It doesn't copy it in sequence for example A2+B2+C2 for the second row and so on. Any suggestions on how I fix that?

    Thanks,
    Danielle

    the formula only needs to be
    A1&B1&C1
    As you copy it down, it will increment sequentially.

    First, make sure calculation is set to automatic.

    Goto the Formulas tab>Calculation Options>Automatic

    Then, your formula should be:

    =A1&","&B1&","&C1

    Copy down as needed.
