The LR Copy Format: A Game-Changer in Excel

• You have a source cell (or range) on the left side of your data.
• You want to copy only the formatting (e.g., bold, borders, background color, date format, alignment) to cells located to the right of that source.
• You do not want to copy the actual text, numbers, or formulas.

• Converting ranges to Excel Tables makes copying across columns more maintainable: formulas use column names and auto-fill to new columns/rows, reducing errors when performing L→R copies within an evolving dataset.
