witch function would work for this...
Could some please help me determane which function in need to use to
accomplish the following... On sheet1 I have a list of parts. This list changes often, as additions and deletions are made. On sheet2 I need every fifth cell in column A (starting with row two) to display a part number. So that no matter what changes are made on sheet1, Sheet2!A2 always displays the part number from sheet1!d2 and Sheet2!a7 = sheet1!d3 Sheet2!a12 = sheet!d4 etc... Also, I would like to be able to drag the formula I put on sheet2 down the column since I have many many parts to reference. (the things I have tried so far have worked with the exception of this step...I would have to edit each formula by hand in order to get it to the correct reference). Thanks in advance.... |

I forgot to add.
The reason I need the formula in every fifth row is because on sheet2 the cells in column A are merged in groups of five...(I want a part number to appear in each consecutive merged cell in the column) this may make a difference if you use a count function...

In Sheet2
Put in the 1st merged cell, ie A2: =INDIRECT("'Sheet1'!D"&INT((ROWS($1:1)-1)/5)+2) Copy down -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "diaare" wrote: I forgot to add.

Hi Max
Utilising your row count, the OP could alternatively use the non volatile =INDEX(Sheet1!D:D,INT((ROWS($1:1)-1)/5)+2) -- Regards Roger Govier "Max" wrote in message ...

Roger,
A better alternative ! (but there's beauty, too <g in the earlier volatile one) -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "Roger Govier" <rogerattechnology4NOSPAMu.co.uk wrote in message ...
