Remember that if you copy an entire table or only the Total Sale column (F column) using the keyboard shortcut CTRL + C or the mouse (right-click and copy), both values and formulas will be pasted as shown in the Excel sheet below. The assignment is to replicate only the values from one table to the adjacent table, not its formulas. However, you want to duplicate the values and not the formula.Īs shown in below Excel sheet, there are four columns – Products in the C5 column, Quantity in D5, Price in E5, and Total Sale amount in F5-along with a formula for multiplying the D and E columns When you copy data from a cell, the formatting of that cell, including the background color, formula, and font color, is also copied. Most individuals find it confusing and highly challenging to copy a value from Excel rather than formula and paste it into a cell. In addition to data management, Microsoft Excel performs various computations and mathematical operations to ease business operations.Ĭopying and pasting data from one cell to another is expected while using Microsoft Excel.
