I have a column of floats in an Excel 2003 worksheet. I want to increase all of these values by a set amount (0.04). What's the easiest way to achieve this?

Fixed by copying into a new worksheet, using a simple addition forumula, and then copying the values back in. Long-winded but avoids all the referencing...

For future reference, you can use Copy + Paste Special using a column of 0.4 values, and select Add from under the options.

Edit: You only need one 0.04 entry, not a column.
