How to pick every third cell?
Hi, I have a spreadsheet with a column in which I keep dates. The date appers in every third cell of this column and the other two cells are blank. I have the another sheet in this workbook in which I want those dates to appear in the column in consecutive order. I'm using cell reference comand right now but have to do it manually every time I have a new entries. So in the other sheet there is a column with cells having references to every third cell in the first sheet. I trided to high-lite the multiple bunches of cells and drag-copy it down - but it's not working. Any ideas??? Thanks, jakar -- jakar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jakar's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=28844 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=485957 |

with autofilter, sort by NonBlanks highlight whats left
or custom sort.... say your dates are in column A then highlight column A Data FilterAutofilter use the drop down button to navigate to NonBlanks ( or use custom if other cells are not blank) then highlight the rows and turn autofilter back off "jakar" wrote: Hi, I have a spreadsheet with a column in which I keep dates.

How to pick every third cell?
Jakar,
Use this formula =IF(ROW()-ROW(G1:G20)+1ROWS(Sheet1!A1:A100)-COUNTBLANK(Sheet1!A1:A100),"", INDIRECT("'Sheet1'!"&ADDRESS(SMALL((IF(Sheet1!A1:A 100<"",ROW(Sheet1!A1:A100 ), ROW()+ROWS(Sheet1!A1:A100))),ROW()-ROW(G1:G20)+1),COLUMN(Sheet1!A1:A100),4)) ) and copy down. It is an array formula, so commit with Ctrl-Shift-Enter -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "jakar" wrote in message ...
