Cell Referencing
Hello,
I have a formula that I want to drag down a column but I run into issues where after I drag down the formula, I will have to update the reference column. It's time consuming if I have 50 columns.

Are you using $ to indicate a fixed reference point?
so as you add lines and used a fixed cell reference it will point to the fixed cell.

You can "lock in" a column and/or row reference as @Cierr suggested by using a $ before the column name and/or row number (whichever you want to lock).
