formula to sum the prior 12 cells regardless of added columns?
I need to sum the preceding 12 cells in a row within excel - regardless of
the fact that some columns will be added in front of this cell with the formula. I want the formula to "float" just not sure how to accomplish it? |

the last number needs to be one MORE than the columns back
=SUM(OFFSET(G1,0,-3,1,4)) -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "Mopechicken" wrote in message ...

A bit more robust in case there aren't 12 cells before
=SUM(INDEX(1:1,1,MAX(1,COLUMN()-12)):INDEX(1:1,1,MAX(1,COLUMN()-1))) -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace somewhere in email address with gmail if mailing direct) "Bob Phillips" wrote in message ... =SUM(INDEX(1:1,1,COLUMN()-12):INDEX(1:1,1,COLUMN()-1)) -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace xxxx in the email address with gmail if mailing direct) "Mopechicken" wrote in message ...

I posted a more robust version just after, in case you start before column M
