Hello,

I have a function but when I click the + icon it does not populate across the whole column.

Any idea how to fix this please?

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
When you say the + icon do you mean clicking the bottom right hand corner? and you go down a column not across, is this what you mean? or do you mean going across multiple columns?

Yes, yes, no

Do you have a continuous column of data in a column next to the column you are autofilling (i.e no blank cells)? and are all the cells below the formula you are autofilling blank?

Ther isn't an autoclick for this ( don't know why?), but you can use....
Click the bottom right corner and drag to the right
OR

Using copy/paste
Select the first cell, copy with CTRL+C, extend selection to the end with CTRL+SHIFT+RIGHT, then paste with CTRL+V

The OP is filling down(see the Yes,yes,no) so there is a double click on the right hand bottom corner if an adjacent column is populated with no blank cells.
