I would like to multiply every cell in column A by B:1 I obviously cannot just go =A2*B1 and drag it down so how would I do that???
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
There's a couple ways...

=A2*B$1 - the $ locks the row, so you can fill it down and it will stay B$1..


Copy B1
Highlight Column A
Right Click - Paste Special - Values - Multiply


Hope that helps..

that does help thank you...do you know how I would do this???....

Lets say I have 4 sizes in column A with a sales total in columb B and above the first size is a style number with it's total sales and lets say that repeats 10 times with the same sizes but the style number and the sales totals are different how would I divide or multiply the first set of sizes by B2 and the second set of sizes by B7 and so on even if there were a different number of sizes every time I just want to dictate that every size be divided or multiplied by it's total every time a different total??? any thoughts???
