Could you please tell me what ' relative copying through a range of cells ' means I have tried HELP and it only refers to relative reference is this the same thing ?

Hi Breda

Yes this is basically the same. Let's say you select cell A1 then copy cell A2 you are copying the cell that is in the same column but one row down from the selected cell. If you then selected cell A2 and copied cell A3 this copy is relative to the first copy you did.
