So I have an google spreadsheet, I am build a cache stats page, that just caches other sheets in the document. All the other sheets are constantly changing.
Here is an example.
I have 2 sheets in a workbook.
SheetA and SheetB
SheetA has 1 column 1 row. A1 and in A1 we have a value of lets say $50.00
SheetB has the same thing, 1 row 1 column. A1 has a formula of ='SheetA'!$A$1
If I go into SheetA and add a column to the left of A1, Google Spreadsheet updates my formula to be ='SheetA'!$B$1
I was under the impression with the $ (dollar) sign the reference should not change but it does. Any ideas on how to prevent Google from updating my formulas? Currently anytime I update the sheets I have to run a script to update all the formulas back to the original.
