Sum rows in groups
I have a column with 10,000 rows of numbers. I need to sum a1:a5, a6:a10,
a11:a15, and so on in groups of five, for all 10,000 rows. How can I do this? Thanks much. |
=SUM(OFFSET(A1,5*ROW(A1)-1,0,5,1))
Put that in the first cell where you want the sums to start and copy it down the column. "sandy" wrote: I have a column with 10,000 rows of numbers. I need to sum a1:a5, a6:a10, a11:a15, and so on in groups of five, for all 10,000 rows. How can I do this? Thanks much. |
Can't get it Duke. The first sum is incorrect and the next formula down
starts with the next number copied down to (a2, a3, a4). What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help.

Absolutely wonderful. Thank you for your help Domenic. Sandy

Sandy,
Try this instead =SUM(OFFSET(A$1,5*(ROW(A1)-1),0,5,1)) -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "sandy" wrote in message ... Can't get it Duke.
