Select every 10th number in a list
 

I have a long list of numbers in column A. I'd like to select every 10th
number down the list. ie the 10th number, 20th, 30th etc

I'm using the formula... =INDEX(A:A,ROW()*20) which just produces a row
of zeros.

Any ideas?

If you're copying the formula along a row, you need to make the
reference to Column A absolute:
=INDEX($A:$A,ROW()*10)
(I also changed 20 to 10 in the formula).

Try this formula :

*=index($A:$A,(row()-1)*10+10)*

and copy down until your range requirement is satisfied.
