I have uploaded the file to the group. It is called SPC_Cells.xlsx. I hope this helps. Nothing too fancy at this point, but again, I would like to try and automate the copying of the formula into new rows so that the uses don't have to do it. Cheers, Russ On Jul 25, 11:29 am, Dilip Pandey wrot

You can create a list for Parent Items. Afterwards whenever you need to add data, you need to go to the last row of you data (where excel is showing * and Highlighted row after that). All the formulas applied to entire column till that row will be automatically copied to next row. Regards, Upe

I think a fairly 'simple' way to do it is using a worksheet_change event. When the sheet is changed, have the event check to see if the column changed is a specific column that always has data. then, the macro could unprotect the sheet, insert the formula, then re-protect the sheet. sound feasible
