Skipping cells when copy and paste

I have an excel work book at my working place. On sheet 3 I have date, customer, qty, price and total amount (see pic 1) and in the sheet 4 I have summary for each day (see pic 2). I fill in the details as in Pic 1 for each day. Next I have to copy the summary on 01-01-2022 which is in page 1 to page 2 of sheet 4 (See Pic 2) to create summary for 02-02-2022. What happens when I paste is, the excel correctly picks the total amount of 55000 for 02-01-2022 from sheet 3. The only formula I can see in the cell B2 in sheet 4 is '=Sheet3!D8' and when I copy that it becomes=Sheet3!D16. How this happens? I cannot see any macros in the 'view code'.

    Always inform about your Excel version, operating system, storage medium/hard drive, OneDrive, Sharepoint, etc.).

    You'll get a quicker and more accurate answer, and those who want to help don't have to invest time guessing the problem:).

     

    Don't forget that not every Excel user has a clue about every job and what you see he can't see.
