028. Fill Right

We can also fill right. We must select the original cell (and the cells to the right) and select from the Edit menu -- Fill and Right.

A B C 1 =A2+$B$3 =B2+$B$3 =C2+$B$3 2 6 2 5 3 7 10 4 4 9 8 7

If we were to fill right from A1 to C1 we would get the formulas displayed to the left. Notice that the second part of the equation is FIXED or (ABSOLUTE REFERENCE so always references B3 which is 10).

Answers would be A1=16, B1=12, C1=15.
