I have a formula that reads =SUMIF(B11:B467,B479,D11:D467)

I want B11:B467 and D11:D467 to remain the same in the formula, but
want B479 to become B480, B481, B482, etc. as I move down the cells i
the column. I cannot figure out how to do this. If I write th
formula in one cell, then drag it down, all the numbers change...


Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me...

Hi

You need to use absolute references:
=SUMIF($B$11:$B$467,B479,$D$11:$D$467)
 
To "freeze" references, place $'s before the column letter
and row number. The quickest way is to select the range in
the formula and continue pressing F4 until you get what
you want.

=SUMIF($B$11:$B$467,B479,$D$11:$D$467)
