Default Factorial question

An example of what Im trying to do:

Four cells in the same column A1:A4 with values 1,2,3,4 respectively.

Assuming that the value of A4 factorial, so A4!, would be A4*A3*A2*A1, then
the function I am trying to insert would be A4!*A3!*A2!*A1!.

I want it to be, however, so there is an input cell where I can insert the
number of cell's I want included, which in this case was 4.

While this is relatively simple if there are just 4 cells involved,
ultimately I will be using up to 100 cells. As yet I have not been able to
produce an appropriate function to do this, and am not even sure if Excel is
able to do this. Any help is appreciated.




Will not the FACT worksheetfunction do what you require?
