    Re: How to Fix Formula in Multiple cells?

    Ben, I *think* the OP is talking about absoluting?

    Imram, if I am correct here, what do your formulas look like?
    Have you considered using Find/Replace?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Imran,
    Turn the Calculation option to Manual.
    Do Find & replace as Ford advised, once you're done, Turn the Calculation back to Automatic.

    Khalid

    If that is all you need to do, do a Find !D and Replace !$D$
    then repeat that with :D and :$D$

    i have different column ranges From C to CF. It means i have to go to individual column and find/replace.

    Re: How to Fix Formula in Multiple cells?

    Yes, might be.

    But if you can upload a sample, someone may offer other solution, may be a drag down/right formula.

    Hi Imran,

    I am afraid you may not get solution for find & replace.

    But you can use the single formula, like SUMIF...

    use this in Categorized sheet C4:
    =SUMIF('Main Data'!$B$4:$B$211,"*"&$B4&"*",'Main Data'!C$4:C$211)

    Copy down and across...

    Make sure to set the matching strings in column b, for example B5 should be IUD instead of IUDs
    and so on for others, its up to you.

    Regards,

    Re: How to Fix Formula in Multiple cells?

    I came up with the same as Khalidngo...
    =SUMIF('Main Data'!$B$2:$B$500,"*"&Categorized!$B4&"*",'Main Data'!C$2:C$500)

    However, you will need to make sure that the terms you use in Categorize col B are contained (somewhere)) in col B Main.

    For instance, in Cat sheet, you have UIDs but in Main you only have blah UID blah (no s)
    You have Short Terms in Cat but that term does not exist in Main

    See what I mean? The SUMIF is searching for matching terms

    Oh, and by the way, to do what you initially asked, all you need to do is remove the $ in front of the column letter, then copy across...
    from ='Main Data'!$C$4+'Main Data'!$C$5
    to ='Main Data'!C$4+'Main Data'!C$5
    very long way to get your answers though
