    Absolute reference with Table Nomenclature.

    I am having some issues keeping absolute references when dragging formulas across columns.

    I want to keep the "[Date]" reference in the table as an absolute without resorting to a column reference such as "E:E"

    E:E is NOT an absolute reference. If you drag that across, it will become F, G, H, etc

    TMS,

    Thank you for the help. Yes I was in a hurry and not paying close attention, I should have written "$E:$E", thanks again for the input.

    Also you would be better off with the IFERROR function outside the ROUND function - as it stands that formula can never return a blank "", because if the SUMIF formula returns an error then IFERROR will return "" and that value will cause ROUND to produce a #VALUE! error. You need it to be like this:

    =IFERROR(ROUND(SUMIF(DailyFoodLogTBL[Date],$Z3,DailyFoodLogTBL[Protein]),0),"")
