Auto Fill Options

[Guest]

We like the auto fill options button when changing formulas for many cells.
However, we would like to change the default auto fill from COPY CELLS to
FILL FORMATTING ONLY.

Is there anyway to do this?

Right-mouse click the fill-handle & drag down. When you let go, you'll see
many options, including Fill Formatting...

Thanks Bob, but is there anyway to change the default?

I don't think you can change the default, but you could record a macro when you
do it once and then tweak that macro to make it useful in most situations.
