Use the F4 key The F4 key is the easiest way to lock cell references. Simply select the cell or range of cells that you want to lock, then press the F4 key. Excel will automatically add the $ sign to the appropriate places in the cell reference. One advantage of using the F4 key is that it's quick and easy.

Using Absolute References The easiest way to stop Excel from updating references is to use absolute references. As we mentioned earlier, absolute references do not change when you copy a formula to another cell. To create an absolute reference, simply add the dollar sign ($) before the column letter and row number.
