Copying a Relative Cell Reference
With relative cell reference, the cell reference changes automatically to
maintain the same relationship between the calling cell and the cell being
called. Note the following example.
=A2+B2+C2+D2
=B5+C5+D5+E5
A

Copying an Absolute or Mixed Cell Reference
Since absolute cell references are “absolute,” they remain the same even
when the expression is moved. With mixed cell references, the absolute part
remains the same, while the relative part changes according to the location
of the expression. Note the following example.
=$A$2+$B2+C$2+D2
=$A$2+$B5+D$2+E5
