How to copy formula and change row numbers???

[rsobieski]

Hey,

I have a formula =(G6*H6)+(G6*I6)+G6+J6

and this works great....for row 6
is there a way I can make it automatically change the row number as I paste the formula down the rows?

Why not drag it down?

Welcome to the Board.

If you use copy/paste, it should change the row numbers for you.
