How to get Row # in formula?

[DaveR]

I have several rows with the same formula but they are seperated, in some
cases, by rows with other information to prevent me from just dragging a
formula down to other rows.

Ex. While in row 13: B13*C13+B13*D13+B13*E13
While in row 20: B20*C20+....

how can I write a formula to populate the "13" or "20" automatically for
whatever row I am in?

Thanks,
Dave

You may not be able to drag it, but if you copy row13 formula and go to row
20 it updates does it not?

Copy and paste will work for want you want

or ctrl+C for copy and ctrl+V for paste

Thanks. I didn't realize that if I were to copy that cell and paste in
another that the row identity would come too.

That got it.

you might want to try =b13*sum(c13:e13)
and then copy

Just to be different...
Add a range name formula. This macro will do it for you...

ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="fx", RefersToR1C1:= _
"=RC2*SUM(RC3:RC5)"

Now, in a cell in any column(except B:E), just enter the formula =Fx

= = = = = = =
