Hope someone can help out here, please...
Excel 2003:
I have a list of columns (i.e. B8, C8, D8, E8 etc) that I want to copy down
a row on another sheet.

For example, on my other sheet, in cells D4 to D14, I want it to reference
cells across the colums, going, B8, C8, D8 etc. I've tried using absolutes
($) and still when I drag down the Autofill, it changes the row rather than
the column, even if i give it 10 cells of data I have manually entered to
give it the idea.

I'd type them in myself if i didn't have 8 columns of over 350 rows to enter!

Any ideas?

Ben

Hi
in D4 enter
=OFFSET('sheet1'!$B$8,0,ROW(1:1)-1)
and copy this down

Select the range where you want the new formula (D4 to D14)
Then on cell D4 type
=transpose(Sheet1!B8:I8)
and array enter it (CTRL + Shift + Enter instead of hitting just Enter)

Brilliant! Thanks, Farnk, you've saved me a lot of work!

Frank,

I would like to do this exact same thing only reversed - i.e. copy data that
is going down by rows across columns. I tried reversing the function using
the "column" function, but it does not seem to be working.

Can you help?

Thanks,

Chaim

I think I figured it out

all I have to do is use

=offset(reference fo my cell,column(A:A)-1,0)

is that right, or is there a better way?

Thanks!

Unfortunately Frank Kabel died in a car accident in January 2005, here's an
adaptation


=OFFSET(Sheet1!$B$8,COLUMNS($A$1:A1)-1,)

copied across will pull the same way


a non volatile version might look like

=INDEX(Sheet1!$B$8:$B$65535,COLUMNS($A$1:A1))


Replace B1 with the first cell in the range you want to pull from and B65535
with the last cell

Sorry to hear about Frank, my sympathies.

Thank you for your help
