I am working on two worksheets to calculate the profit of the products. So what I have to do it take the cell from the main sheet (D3) and take another value and add it to the D3. The following is the formula I got(=D3+'Profits '!B3+'Profits '!B4+'Profits '!B5+'Profits '!B6)
. the problem is when I scroll down to calculate D4
, D5
, D6
the cell from the Profits
sheet also increases. I only want the main sheet to increment and remain the same for the other sheet
example
=D3+'Profits '!B3+'Profits '!B4+'Profits '!B5+'Profits '!B6
=D4+'Profits '!B3+'Profits '!B4+'Profits '!B5+'Profits '!B6
=D5+'Profits '!B3+'Profits '!B4+'Profits '!B5+'Profits '!B6
How can I do that to achieve this formula in excel.
Thank you in advance.
Precede a row or column address with a $ sign to make it absolute, like $B$6.
An absolute reference will not change when copied to another cell. Rows and columns can be made absolute independently. $B6 will not change when copied left and right but will change when copied vertically. B$6 won't change when copied up or down but will adjust when copied left or right.
$B$6 will be unchanged during any copying.
