Ram B

Summing a variable range
 
I need to create a formula for summing cells say B2 through J2 with results
in A2 so I use the formula

=sum(B2:J2)

As you see I am summing 9 cells.

What I want to do is able to type a number in Cell A1 and sum the B2 to A1
number of cells to the right of B2.

Any help will be appreciated.

=SUM(OFFSET(B2,0,0,1,A1))

Here's a non volatile solution

=SUM(B2:INDEX(B2:IV2,A1))

Why do you call it a non volatile solution? As far as I know "volatile" means
that the expression is recalculated each time a Calculation occurs. It
applies to your formula as well, doesn't it?
