Thank you. The OFFSET command identifies the correct cell. However, when I
copy to the right, the pattern doesn't repeat. It always remains anchored to
the first cell (eg. A1), so all subsequent results repeat the same value. I
tried removing the $ before the column, but it still doesn't work. I need the
copied formula to move the anchor point over by 4 columns as the new
reference. How do I do that?

Hi
in the first cell (lets assume A1) enter
=OFFSET('other_sheet'!$B$6,0,(COLUMN()-1)*4)
and copy to the right

I am trying to copy formulas in a spreadsheet that pulls the data from
every
4th column in another spreadsheet in a consistent pattern (eg. b6, f6, j6,
n6). When I try to copy the pattern to the next 4 cells in the row,
anticipating r6, v6, etc. instead it repeats as f6, j6, n6, r6. How do I
correct this?
