Default Using Address Result

Hi,
Is it possible to use ADDRESS comman result as a reference somehow?
More specifically - I am trying to count values from a certain offset to my
current position to my position.
For example:
A1 B1 C1 D1 E1 F1 ... AA1
1 1 1 3

Lets say I am in position F1 and I want to count the values from B1 to D1,
where B1 is determined by the value in AA1 (AA1 tells me how far backward I
should check).
If the value in AA1 was 4 I would check from A1 to D1.
Hope I am clear enough
thanks

Hi!

Hope I am clear enough


Well, not really!

What do you mean by: Lets say I am in position F1

Is that the end of your data range? Is that the cell you have selected?

Hey,
F1 is where I want to write the formula basically and relative to it I want
to start counting the other cells.
I have found a way to do it on my own, without using ADDRESS command (I hope
it clarify my question as well :-)):
=COUNTA(OFFSET(F1,0,$AA$1,1, $AA$1-1))
thanks, Biff
