In this video, we’ll be showing you how to use absolute cell references in Excel. Absolute cell references are cells in a formula that stay anchored to a particular cell or range even if that formula is copied to other cells. Often you will want to copy a formula to different cells, but sometimes you’ll also have a cell you’re referencing in the formula that you don’t want to change even if you copy the formula. We’ll show you how to use absolute cell references to fix that problem. 1. Select the cell you want the formula to be in. 2. Type in your formula. The formula we will be using for this example is =C6*$J$5 where J5 is the absolute cell. 3. After referencing the cell you want anchored press F4 or click in the cell reference on the formula bar and press F4. You can also manually add the $ sign marks to a cell reference. 4. Now when copying the cell, the relative cell references change but the reference marked as absolute does not change. 5. You can also press F4 a couple more times if you want to make the cell absolute in rows only or absolute in columns only. If the $ sign is before the number the rows are absolute. If before the letter the columns are absolute. Creating absolute cell references is easy once you know how. Just press F4 on the reference in the formula bar or type the $ signs manually. ❓💬 What other tips do you think are essential to know when using Excel?
