Selecting and Naming Ranges of Cells

Group multiple cells into a range like A1:A10 and refer to many cells at once.

What Is a Range?

A range is a group of cells treated as one block. Instead of naming cells one by one, you point a formula at a whole batch at once.

The Colon Means Through

You write a range with a colon, which means "through." So A1:A10 is cell A1 through A10: ten cells stacked in a column.
