Default variable cell references

On Apr 30, 7:17 am, jjk98 wrote:
I have a large array (10x2200) of small integers. I have a second array of
three columns and about 200 rows. The first column of the second array has a
column number in the first big array (thus it has a value from 1 - 10) the
2nd and 3rd columns in the second array have a start and end row in the first
big array.

I would like to be able to compute the sum of the integers in the column
specified from the start row to the end row. For example if one of the rows
in the secord array has values 10 40 50 I want to compute the sum of rows 40
through 50 in column 10 of my big array.

I've tried the indirect function and the address function in various
combinations but cannot seem to get it right.

Thanks for your help - jjk98


Say the top left cell (not heading) of the large array is Sheet1!$A$2,
and the first row of values in the second array is Sheet2!$A$2:$B$2,
then

=SUM(OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$2,B2-1,A2-1,C2-B2+1,1))

in Sheet2!$D$2 filled down to the bottom of the second array seems to
work.
