Press F2 (or double-click the cell) to enter the editing mode. Select the formula in the cell using the mouse, and press Ctrl + C to copy it. Select the destination cell, and press Ctl+V. This will paste the formula exactly, without changing the cell references, because the formula was copied as text.
Excel allows selecting multiple non-adjoining columns and use the insert column shortcut to get new columns appear to their left. 1. Select several non-adjacent columns by clicking on their letter buttons and keeping the Ctrl key pressed. The newly inserted columns will appear to the left.
Select the row or column that you want to move or copy. Note: Make sure that you hold down CTRL or SHIFT during the drag-and-drop operation. If you release CTRL or SHIFT before you release the mouse button, you will move the rows or columns instead of copying them.
Select the cell with the formula and the adjacent cells you want to fill. Click Home > Fill, and choose either Down, Right, Up, or Left. Keyboard shortcut: You can also press Ctrl+D to fill the formula down in a column, or Ctrl+R to fill the formula to the right in a row.
If you use ALTER TABLE statement, it will automatically add the new column to the end of the table. The ALTER privilege is required to perform this: ALTER TABLE table_name ADD col_name data_type NULL | NOT NULL; It will not drop any existing data.
Anyone who has used Excel for some time knows how to use the autofill feature to autofill an Excel cell based on another. You simply click and hold your mouse in the lower right corner of the cell, and drag it down to apply the formula in that cell to every cell beneath it (similar to copying formulas in Excel).
After selecting the cell with the formula, go to the formula bar and use your cursor to add "$" before both the column and row name of your constant cell. If your formula references cells D4 and E4, and you want E4 to stay constant, type the cell reference as "$E$4" in the formula.
To lock it, click on the cell reference in the formula bar (B2), and enter $ before column and row ($B$2). You can also press F4 on the keyboard to freeze a cell. As a result, Column D now has cell B2 locked, and values from Column C are multiplied by 5 in every row.
Use the keyboard shortcut to apply the formula to the entire column, including any new rows you insert: Ctrl + d (Windows) or Cmd + d (Mac). The formula will be copied to the entire column and applied to new rows as soon as they are added.
You create DataColumn objects within a table by using the DataColumn constructor, or by calling the Add method of the Columns property of the table, which is a DataColumnCollection. The Add method accepts optional ColumnName, DataType, and Expression arguments and creates a new DataColumn as a member of the collection.
To insert a column, pick any cell in the table and right-click. Point to Insert, and pick Table Rows Above to insert a new row, or Table Columns to the Left to insert a new column.
Select the range in Excel to insert a new row. To do this left-click on the row number button next to the fist cell of the selection and extend the range keeping the left mouse button pressed.
If you do not want cell references to change when you copy a formula, then make those cell references absolute cell references. Place a "$" before the column letter if you want that to always stay the same. Place a "$" before a row number if you want that to always stay the same.
In Excel, select the data you want to copy, and then press Ctrl+C. Open the other Office program, click where you want to paste the data, and then press Ctrl+V. Click Paste Options next to the data, and choose how you want to paste it. Keep Source Formatting This keeps the data formatting exactly as is.
Copying formulas with AutoFill in Excel
From the Formulas tab, choose AutoSum. Excel adds up the cells immediately adjacent to the current cell, which in this case is range B5:C5. Press Enter. Click in cell D5 and drag the AutoFill handle down to cell D9 and release.
