I know there has to be a faster way to copy formulas down thousands of rows rather than click and drag.

Any suggestions???
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
You could use a macro that asks for the first and last cells and fills them automatically. Something like:

Sub FillMe()
Dim LastRow As String
FirstCell = Application.InputBox("What is the cell you want to copy?")
LastCell = Application.InputBox("What is the last cell you want filled?")
Range(FirstCell).Select
Range(FirstCell).Copy
Range(FirstCell).AutoFill Destination:=Range(FirstCell & ":" & LastCell), Type:=xlFillDefault
End Sub

If you use it enough, just add a button for it to your toolbar for easy access.

Just double click on the dragdown box at the lower right side of the cell. That will copy down to the bottom of the used range.
