When you copy a formula Excel tries to help by changing the cell references as you go. This is known as a relative reference
For example, copy the formula in F4 down to F6 and see what happens to the formula.
Sales 1 Sales 2 Total
5 11 16
55 44
44 99
However, there are times when you want to copy a formula and you DO NOT want the cell reference in the formula to change.
If you do not want the cell reference to change you create an absolute reference by putting a dollar sign ($) in front of the parts
of the reference you do not want to change e.g. $B$13
Below is an example of adding VAT to the price of some goods. Copy the formula in F18 down to F21.
You will notice that it will not work. Why is this?
Now go back and change the formula in F18 to an absolute reference by putting the $ sign in.
Do you need to put $ signs in both cell references, or just one Another cool trick

This sheet demonstrates how to ensure that the information entered into a cell is always correct.
This is known as 'Data validation'.
l is always correct.
Conditional formatting means that you can highlight data that meets conditions YOU specify.
For example, cell D7 has the number of Mars bars sold in a shop.
Excel can apply blue shading to the cell if the sales exceed 50 and red shading if sales fall below 10.
55
To set conditional formatting:
1. Select the cells you want to format.
2. On the Format menu, click Conditional Formatting.
3. Set your formatting options. You can have up to three.
If you get stuck use Help. Help menu>Contents and Index>conditional formats
Another way is to have a cell (B8) into which you put, and easily change, the %
