    Annoying Cell Linking Behavior - Any Way to Fix?

    When you copy and paste link multiple cells, the formulas generated look like this:

    =Sheet1!A1
    =Sheet1!A2
    =Sheet1!A3
    .
    .

    However, if you copy and paste link a single cell, you get this:

    =Sheet1!$A$1

    This creates a lot of problems if you forget to remove the $ symbols before copying to an adjactent column!

    Is there any way to kep Excel from putting in the $ characters?


    Thanks,

    Mark

    That's what I have been doing, want to avoid having to do the last step (find/replace).
