AskWoody LoungerAfter you have “selected a range including hidden rows and/or columns”
Just type Alt + ; (semicolon) and save a few clicks.Ken

AskWoody LoungerRay,
I’ve got no experience with the draglock feature or working with laptops. Sorry. Maybe someone else can help.

AskWoody LoungerRay,
Oddly, my Excel (2000) started doing this exact behavior right after reading your post. Do you have a wheel mouse? FWIW, I got rid of the behavior by clicking the wheel. If that doesn’t work I’d look into reverting any customized mouse settings to defaults, or see if there is an updated driver for your mouse.

AskWoody LoungerTry this custom format: @*.
The @ stands for text, the * tells excel to repeat the dot to the end of the cell

AskWoody LoungerHere’s an example of finding the last column with an array formula.
First example puts the last column in a separate cell, the second integrates it into your own formulas in place of the match function.

AskWoody LoungerPeter,
Here’s an alternative approach.
1) Open your workbook as read-only.
2) Copy and Paste-Values over the sheets you want to distribute.
3) Delete unwanted sheets (Can be done as a group)
4) Do a Save AsKen

AskWoody LoungerThanks to all who answered my post. Adding an additional column is not an option that I wish to use because this example is cut down from a form that I use. To start adding column(s) would require a lot of reworking of macros and the form itself (although I suppose I could use a hidden column). Anyway Aladin nailed it for me. Thanks Aladin.

AskWoody LoungerKeith,
Look at this method. I use it a lot in my job. It uses this formula:
[Budgeted Amount – Amount Spent To Date / Remaining number of months]
Just replace the formula each month with the actual spending and the subsequent months will
average out the remaining available balance.HTH

AskWoody LoungerMac,
Thanks for the help. Seems simple enough, just not intuitive. At least to me, at least not yet.
