Changing cell references to the next row
This spreadsheet shows monthly invoices for different projects which are referenced on multiple sheets. Is there a quicker way for me to change every cell highlighted here to the next row? I started to change some already, but I need to do this for each month of the year. The next batch will need to by C11, help!
SarahILE Start by selecting the range of cells you want to change, where the row number being referenced in each formula is the same (ie: all formulas referencing $C$9, $D$9, $E$9 & $J$9). Then, on the ribbon, go to Home > Find & Select > Replace and complete the following:
- Find what: $9
- Replace with: $10
- Click Replace All

djclementsit worked! thank you so much. I knew there would be a quicker way, I just changed 68 cells at once! you've saved me lots of time and I'm sure some potential errors!
