    right lower corner + does not populate the function through the whole column

    From time to time I'd have trouble with "right lower corner +" to populate a function throughout the whole column.

    Any idea why it would fail from time to time (as if it does not recognize that there is a whole column of data that needs to be calculated)

    Re: right lower corner + does not populate the function through the whole column

    hey there. maybe you could give us a scenario where it does not work. i have 2 examples to show you in the file. say the cell you wish to copy down (with the + is the autofill handle) is "abc" in red. there is one in G2 and the other in M2.

    G2 will copy all the way down to row 4 because it's connected to F2. F2 is diagonally connected to E2, and E2 diagonally to D4.

    but for M2, it's connected to L2. L2 connected all the way to L5 and that's the end of the connection. the rest of the cells are not connected at all to the cells in column L. so it stops at M5 instead of M7

    If there are gaps in the adjacent column, it will only copy to just before the 1st break
