is there a quicker way to =I14*C14+I15*C15 in have 2500 cells to do, then i need to repeat the formula to another colomn 30 times for =J14*C14+J15*C15' , =K14*C14+K15*C15 and etc
C remains the same but the others change.
Can some on explain it to me please I so that i can do it on my own please

The example file you've provided is hard to interpret. It's difficult to understand what you want without a little bit more information. Can you please provide a more complete non-sensitive mock up. The task you require to be completed will be much easier to solve if you are able to provide a more accurate representation of your data.

Surely I will update the file.
The formula has to be in row 1468.
above the formula cell it is date from the 1st of the month till the 31st of the month.
The formula from row 1468 has to first multiply example for the 1st 14I*14C+15I*15C
the cells high light till I reach a certain number then it stops and when it stops I get confused and start to mix up things.
I have to do that formula from 14 to 1467 on the 1st and then when need to make the same formula to the other day where column C price is the same multiplied by the usage of the day and add to the next cell.
I hope you would be able to help me or explain it to me so that I can learn how to do it well.
Thanks in advance for your help and assistance.

Karol-
Thank you for the clarification. Based on what your formula says maybe try modifying it to this simpler notation:
=SUMPRODUCT(I4:I47,C4:C47)
If you need the entire column then try changing it to:
=SUMPRODUCT($I$4:$I$1466,$C$4:$C$1466)

Hi,
You have not specified where you want to put formula. Anyway try the formula as below.
=I14*$C14+I15*$C15
=J14*$C14+J15*$C15
=K14*$C14+K15*$C15- karol polubinskiCopper Contributor
the formula is at the bottom of the sheet under the corresponding date. Sorry I missed that out
