Hello!

I have merged cells A1-A3 and I want to drag this and merge B1-B3, C1-C3 etc.

However, dragging the + sign copies also the formatting, not only the merging.

Is there a solution?

Thanks!

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
