Default How do I segment a column of data into size ranges in Excel?

Hi!


Ideally, if
there is a formula command that can point to a section of data in a column
like this, and perform an operation on it, that I can direct to a particular
cell, I would like to know how to do that.


There is, but you need to tell us *EXACTLY* what you want to do and tell us
*EXACTLY* where the data is.

For example, This formula, when copied down, will sum every 10 rows in
column A:

=SUM(OFFSET(A$1,(ROWS($1:1)-1)*10,,10))

The first cell will sum A1:A10
The next cell will sum A11:A20
The next cell will sum A21:A30
etc
etc

I have a column of data listed in ascending order. I would like to pull
sections of it out (i.e. 0-10, 11-20, etc.) without having to manually go
through the column and highlight that section, copy, paste, etc. Ideally,

I can't figure out what version of Excel I have. It's whatever comes with
MS Windows XP.
