INTRODUCTION

When you build your worksheet, you might want to use the same data and formulas in more than one cell. With Excel's Copy command, you can create the initial data or formula once and then place copies of this information in the appropriate cells.

TIP

Order of Operation

Excel first performs any calculations within parentheses. Then, it performs multiplication or division calculations, from left to right. Finally, it performs any addition or subtraction, from left to right.
