Here's something I keep thinking the new versions of Excel will do. I'm on Excel 2007 presently so maybe 2010 or beyond fixes.
What I want to do is "clone" a range of cells. That is, make replicas of the cells w/ their formulas completely unchanged. Sort of like "copy-->paste special-->"clone". I just thought of one way to do it, which is a little kludgey: use the "move or copy" entire worksheet function to basically clone the entire worksheet tab, then cut and paste the range of cells from the cloned tab to where you need them, then delete the cloned tab. Not awful, I guess.
Short of a VBA approach, there's no other ways to go?
Note for anybody else who's looking for a single-cell cloning solution: if you need to copy just a single cell, you can just copy the formula itself out of the formula bar then go to your new cell and paste.
