Default OFFSET problem

Hi,

I have a problem when using the offset function. I am using the Match
function to find the first and last occurences of a string in a series
of data. When the string is early in the data this works. When the
string is late in the data -- past 1000 rows -- the offset function
returns nothing.

Does anybody know why this is??

Here is the formula:

=COUNT(OFFSET(MGCSales,MATCH($F$5,Source!$A$3:$A$3 3412,0),8,MATCH($F
$5,Source!$A$3:$A$33412,1)-MATCH($F$5,Source!$A$3:$A$33412,0),1))

Thanks in advance for your help.

A
