Thanks David for your help. Greatly appreciated. Goose

replacing $A1 by the reference to your first Q2 cell, and $A5 by the
reference to the cell where you are putting the formula for your first
year's total.
That should copy to the right appropriately.

Hi all,
Hopefully someone can help me solve this issue:
Suppose I have quarterly data for several years in a single row.
Then it is simple to sum the quarters of the first year to get a year's
result.
If I then copy this cell one position to the right, the result is Q2 + Q3
+
Q4 + Q1 of the next year.
Question: how do I copy a cell one position to the right, but at the same
time move 4 positions in the source row?
And the next cell: position + another 4, and again, and again, to get full
year's results.
Can this be done?
Cheers, Goose
