USING AUTO FILL
• Auto Fill enables you to copy the contents of a cell or cell range or to continue a series using the fill handle– Example: Month names Jan, Feb, Mar form a
series • The fill handle is the small black square in the
bottom right corner of a cell
USING AUTO FILL TO COPY FORMULAS-EXAMPLE
Click cell D5 the cell containing the formula to calculate the retail price for the first item.
Position the mouse pointer on the fill handle in the bottom-right corner of cell D5. When the pointer changes from a white plus sign to a thin black plus sign, double-click the fill handle.
