Create an absolute cell reference To maintain cell address even if copied into other cells To correctly copy the subtraction formula entered into Cell H4 into other cells, it must contain absolute cell references. In other words, Cells B8 through E8 must always be added together before each item total can be subtracted from it. If you copied the formula using the Fill Handle or Fill button now, all of the cell names in the formula would change. Adding the $ sign to a formula ensures that the column and row references remain constant, or absolute. Click on Cell H4 In the Formula Bar, edit the current formula by typing a $ in front of each letter (column) and number (row) contained within the ( ) of the formula. The formula should now be: =($B$8+$C$8+$D$8+$E$8)-F4 Press the Enter key The result $5, should have remained in Cell H4, but the formula in the Formula Bar should have changed to "=($B$8+$C$8+$D$8+$E$8)-F4".
