To reference cell C2 in Excel and ensure that the reference remains constant when you copy the formula to other cells, you should use an absolute reference. You can do this by adding dollar signs ($) before the column letter and the row number.
So, you would reference the cell as:
```
$C$2
```
By using `$C$2`, when you copy the formula to another cell, it will always refer to the value in C2, rather than changing with the position to which you copy the formula.
