Hi, I'm sure this must be simple but cant work it out:
I have a formula that fills down in the usual way referring to data in another sheet i.e 'Sheet1' A1 =Sheet2!A1 & 'Sheet1' A2 =Sheet2!A2 etc. Now if I insert a new row somewhere in the middle is it possible to make the formula update without having to drag the formula to refill the whole spreadsheet? Ideally by just updating the inserted row would have a knock on effect to the formulas in the rows below.
For example: *Note I've simplified things, but this is the principle of what I want to do - dragging the formula to update all the cells isn't going to work for me.*
Sheet1 Rows A1:A30 are picking up data from Sheet2 A1:A30.
I insert a new row on Sheet1 at A16 and drag the formula to update A16 from above so that A16=Sheet2!A16.
Now Sheet1 A17 also =Sheet2!A16 as it has retained it's previous formula, I want this to update automatically to Sheet1 A17=Sheet2!A17 and so on for the rows below.
Maybe there's a setting that enables formulas to update on being moved?
Thanks for any help!
