Default how can we make one constant number to be act as variable

Select 5 cells.

In the active cell enter this formula

=VLOOKUP(A12,$A$35:$J$40,{4,5,6,7,8},TRUE)

Do not hit ENTER key.

Instead hit CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER to enter as an array.

Now i wanna make this 4 to be act as variable and when i drag the cell
containg above formula, copied cell have values 5,6 7 ..n so on in place of 4.

It can seen as reverse of making variable as constant by use of $. e.g.$A$15.
