How to Insert Copied Cells Multiple Times in Excel


Fill Handle
1. Open the Excel 2010 spreadsheet that has the information you want to copy. Click on the cell you want to copy.
2. Move the mouse to the lower right corner of the cell where there is a small square along the border. When you move your mouse over this square, called a fill handle, the mouse pointer turns into a plus sign.
3. Click and hold the mouse button over the fill handle, then drag the mouse in the direction that you want to copy the information. When you reach the last cell where you want to copy the information, release the mouse button. Excel now automatically copies the information into every cell between the first and last ones.
Paste Feature
4. Open the Microsoft Excel 2010 spreadsheet that you want to work with.
5. Click on the cell that you want to copy and press “Ctrl” and “C” to copy the cell’s contents to your clipboard.
6. Click on the first cell where you want to paste the information. To paste the information in a range of cells, click and hold the mouse button over the first cell, then drag the mouse down to the last cell and release the button.
7. Hold the “Ctrl” key and select the second cell, or group of cells, where you want to paste the information. Continue to hold “Ctrl” until you have selected every cell where you want to paste the information.
8. Press “Ctrl” and “V” to paste the information into every cell you have selected.
