Help!!!
This issue is similar to absolute/relative references, but it's related to the data being referenced, not the cells doing the referencing. If I have a cell that references A3 then I insert a row above row 3 (making the original A3 cell now A4), my reference automatically changes to A4. How can I force the reference to say A3 regardless of any rows added or removed above row 3? -- jimithing1980 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jimithing1980's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=36442 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=562097 |
Help!!!
Jimithing1980, This is exactly the same thing - absolute references usually use a dollar sign infront of the row and column address _together_. Try experimenting with putting the $ sign in front of just the row or just the column reference and I think you discover your answer.

Help!!!
In your formula, replace A3 with OFFSET(A1,2,0)
