named dynamic range that ends with first text entry
I've found many example on how to created a dynamic named range which ends at
the last numeric or text entry. I would like to create one that ends at the first text entry. The data I'm workign with has a heading, then numeric data, then another heading, then more numeric data. I only need the numeric data between the first heading and the second, and the amount of rows between frequently changes. Is this possible? Thank you, super-geniuses. |

named dynamic range that ends with first text entry
Hi!
One way: Assume your first header is in A1 followed by several rows of numbers and then another header. =OFFSET(A2,,,MATCH("*",A2:A100,0)) Biff "mcmanusb" wrote in message ...

Depending on how you intend to use this range you might want to use this
instead: =OFFSET(A2,,,MATCH("*",A2:A100,0)-1) Biff "Biff" wrote in message ... Hi!

Biff - FWIW,
"*" includes nulls ( "" - zero length strings) in it's match criteria in addition to "Text". "*?" will look at *only* "Text" (alpha or numeric). -- Regards, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Biff" wrote in message ...
