Technically it is not a cell reference, because it is referring to a range of cells, not just one cell. The reference would be:
B1:G10
relative cell reference
They can be called a range or a block.
That is column C, row 1to Column G, row 8. So in a formula it would be done as C1:G8 to reference that range. So a typical formula: =SUM(C1:G8)
A Range
They are the way cells are identified in a spreadsheet. This is done by the column and row of the cell. Columns are identified by letters and rows by numbers. Cell C12 is the cell in column C and row 12 for example.
A range is a series of two or more adjacent cells in a column or a rectangular group of cells in a spreadsheet. This range can be used for calculations, formatting, or referencing data in the cells.
A cell reference is how an individual cell is identified. It is the column of the cell and the row of the cell. So cell N45 is in column N and row 45. The name box shows what cell or named range is currently selected, making it easier to know where you are on the spreadsheet. It is also used to go to a cell or range by typing the cell reference or the name of the range into it.
A cell is the intersection of a row and a column. A range is a group of two or more adjacent cells, in a rectangular form.
If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.If a formula copied includes the actual name of a range, then when you copy it, the name will stay and so will the reference to the original set of cells the range refers to.
column
range
In most spreadsheet programs a range of cells is represented within a pair of parenthesis - so the first punctuation mark is the opening paragraph mark, i.e. "("In more detail, the syntax is:(column-row:column-row)or descriptively:( column of the first cell in the range rowof first cell in the range : column of the last cell in the range row of the last cell in the range )For example:(A4:D18)Where the address of the first cell in the range is column A, row 4 and the address of the last cell in the range is column D, row 18
