Could someone please tell me if it is possible to do the following?!

I have a row of dates in Row 1 - A1 being Friday 1st May, B1 Saturday 2nd May, through to G1 being Thursday 7th May.

Row 2 is a row of formula to pick details from another worksheet.

Row 3 is the next week's dates - A3 being Friday 8th May etc.

Row 4 is a row of formula to pick details from another worksheet.

My question is - can I replicate this to rows 5 onwards by dragging down the existing information? It doesn't seem to work when I have tried it.

Any thoughts would be welcome.

Spell Check in Excel
Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
To increment the dates, make the third row a row of formulas. In A3, enter =A1+7 and copy to the right. Then drag the last two rows.

To exactly duplicate the rows, select A1:G4. Put your cursor on the thick border between rows 4 and 5. The cursor should change to the thin, black 4-headed arrow cursor. Press Ctrl and drag.
