    Copying a vlookup cell to multiple cells in same row(most common methods not working)

    My function is:

    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B2,Sheet3!A2:B336,2),"")

    I tried the common copy format techniques like clicking/dragging the bottom right black box and even just manual copy+paste into cells in the same row.

    I don't want the formula copied as:

    Cell Below:
    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B2,Sheet3!A3:B337,2),"")
    Cell below:
    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B2,Sheet3!A4:B338,2),"")

    What I'd like is this:
    First cell:
    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B2,Sheet3!A2:B336,2),"")
    Second cell:
    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B3,Sheet3!A2:B336,2),"")
    Third cell
    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B4,Sheet3!A2:B336,2),"")

    So on and so forth for 336 or so cells.

    Any ideas on how to copy in the format I want without manual plug n chug for 300+ cells? I tried absolute values, but maybe I did them wrong.

    Highlight Sheet3!A2:B336 and hit F4 or replace your table with Sheet3!$A$2:$B$336
