Excel formula

This query is : Resolved 

19 June 2013 please let me know what is the function of doller ($) sign in excel formula ?

please guide

19 June 2013 if u want to keep $ as currency, then change it from format cell -> currency.

If you want to put $ to keep cell value constant use shift + 4 or f4.


19 June 2013 suppose c4*E4 = result
but $c4*$E4 = same result

my question is why we use $ in formula




19 June 2013 1)$E1 tells Excel you always want to refer to column E.

2)E$1 tells Excel you always want to refer to row 1.

3)$E$1 tells Excel you always want to refer to cell E1.

for you 1st instance applicable may be your requirement is you always want to refer coloumn E.

Thanks & regards

19 June 2013 Know some thing about dollor sign?why to use?

1)The absolute sign($), is used specially when you write an equation or any other thing in excel, and you want to copy it into other cells.

2)If you write "=E3+F3" in a cell, that cell will show the addition of E3 and F3. If you copy and paste to the cell below that, the equation will automatically change into "=E4+F4", also, if you copy that into the cell to the right of the first one, equation will change into "=F3+G3".

3)The absolute sign ($), avoids that, if you right that before the row or column (e.g. F$3 or $F3 or $F$3) the row, or column, or both, won't change when you copy and paste the equation.

Note: refer rules 1,2,3, as i said iin previous reply for ur reference

Note: it will be great help in sumif,vlookup,and many function while dong reconciliaiton and caluculations to give true results

Thanks & regards
