    Right Filling A Formula Whilst Keeping A Static Column

    Hello,

    I have a large worksheet with in excess of 100 rows and 100 columns. In each cell of column C, I have a constant that I need to use as part of the formula applicable to columns D, E, etc. For example; =SUM(C7*D7).

    I would like to fill right across all subsequent columns so as the formulas are =SUM(C7*E7), =SUM(C7*F7), etc. Alas, what happens is that I am getting =SUM(D7*E7), =SUM(E7*F7), etc.

    Any suggestion gratefully received. Thanks in advance.

    Regards,
    Kevin

    use
    =SUM($C7*D7).
    the dollar sign will make it stay at column C

    The Sum() is superfluous.

    =$C7*D7 is sufficient and preferred.

    agreed, I didn't notice it was "*" instead of ":".
