    Ok, this is my problem, I need to add the value of 20.. to a TON of cells in this excel document, and i really don't want to do each and every cell manually.. I'm wondering if there's any possible way to add the values automatically for each cell that has a number.

    Here's a screen shot of it.

    Basicly, those first numbers circled. on the top-left,
    420
    320
    ect..

    would be,
    440
    340
    ect..

    someone please respond with good news.. thanks.

    Do the cell formulas have anything in common? so that you could drag-copy them?

    If not, then no, I don't know of any easy way to do it.

    Btw, there are some truly excellent Excel resources out there. Here's one I had bookmarked: http://www.dicks-blog.com/

    I recall another that is a forum but I can't find a link.

    It may be easier to copy the data to a 2nd worksheet. For example, if you have your numbers in column A on Sheet1, then you'd create a 2nd sheet and type the following in column A....

    =Sheet1!A1+20

    Then you could click on the bottom right corner of the cell and drag it down to fill in the rest of the column with the same formula (=Sheet1!A2+20, =Sheet1!A3+20, =Sheet1!A4+20, etc...).
