I am copying the following formula down a column and need the f2 to remain constant instead of canging to f3,f4 ....

=IF (OR (C10=0),"",INT (YEARFRAC (C10,F2)))

Can anyone help?
 

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.
Make it absolute
Code:
=IF (OR (C10=0),"",INT (YEARFRAC (C10,$F$2)))

Glad to help.

To explain it more in depth
$F$2 is an absolute reference neither the column or row number will change when copied.
$F2 is a mixed reference the column is locked and will not change but the row can change.
F$2 is a mixed reference where the row is locked and will not change but the column can change.
