    Dragging formulas in large database

    Here is a problem I have latly,

    I am using Databases of over 30,000 rows, now , somtimes i want to write a formula for each cell, ofcourse I can do Draggdown, how ever for few hundreds rows it can be just fine , but for 30,000 it takes long time with just sitting with my finger on the mouse butten...
    is there more simple way to do it ?

    Thank you!

    Hover the cursor over the right hand corner of the formula cell. It should change to cross hairs (+), then double click
    Hope that helps.

    That's what happens, double click & the formula will copy to the last row of data
