How to sum the last 7 number in a row?
This probably has an easy solution but I just cant figure it out. I have
search this discussion board but cant find anything. Anyways I was wondering if there is a formula that sums the last 7 entries I entered in the row. An example would be. D5 E5 F5 G5 H5 I5 J5 K5 L5 M5 N5 O5 2 5 1 3 5 1 0 2 4 2 D5 is where I want the sum of the last 7 numbers. and everyday I would add a number at the back and do not want to change the range everytime I do so. is there a way to make D5 return the last 7 numbers I have entered in the row and will readjust everytime I add another number? |

Have a help cell - perhaps D3
=COUNT(E5:IV5) and in cell D5 =SUM(INDIRECT("R5C"&MAX(5,D3-2)&":R5C"&D3+5,FALSE)) You may need to play with this one to make sure you know what it is doing.... -- Wag more, bark less "Learning excel" wrote: This probably has an easy solution but I just cant figure it out.

Try this:
=SUM(OFFSET(E5,,COUNT(E5:IV5)-1,,-7)) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Learning excel" wrote in message ... yes there will always be at least 7 numbers "T.
