excel only showing first value over again when I drag a formula down
is your first forumla A1*A2 or is it something like: $A$1*$A$2
If it is, delete the $ and drag it down again
Thank you Philip
No. There are no dollar signs
I have used excel for several decades.
Suddenly my excel changed for no reason I can account for and even for the most simple formulas i am experiencing this problem
If i re-click of the formula bar for the subsequent items in the table then they read the corect value, but on the initial drag, or if i change a value without reclicking the formula bar it does not change.
is there a function that keeps the first formula entry the same as all other entries in a table or series
It might be that you have accidentally turned automatic calculation off then.. go to the Formulas ribbon, calculate options and make sure Automatic is ticked.. Hopefully its currently set to manual and thats the problem.
- Thank you!!!!!!
It worked
My hats of to you and eternal gratitude
you are a genius
One simple thing has screwed me for months
I will blame my 2 yr old who often slams my keyboard pad trying to figure it out and pretend he is like his dad, just as stupid too

Haha, super! Glad it worked.
