Excel 2007: Insert Row into Defined Area & Inherit Above Formulas

A

Andrew Gill

I swear that prior to Excel 2007, if you inserted above a range of cells with
formulas that the new row was not totally blank - it fill-copied down the
inherited (from row above) formula.

Am trying to do the same in 2007. Have an input template defined on a
protected spreadsheet where the user enters some data and there are automatic
calculations. If during Sheet protection I allow the user to be able to
insert rows, it inserts a row and maintains the cell fill color, but does not
copy down the cell formula from the row above.

Excel 2003 also does NOT copy the formula. Formatting is inherited in the
new row but not the formulas.

You need to use a macro to do this.

Thanks. Anyone have a good macro for this?

I have seen a few on this forum...

You can have a insert button which will insert a new row and copy the
formulae from the row above...

Let me know if you are unable to find a solution.
