I am trying to reference the data in a column but use it in a row. ie
I have data in a column 'A' as follows: w x y z I want to write a formula in cell A10 as follows: =$A1 (result = w) When I copy the formula to cell B10 I want the result to = x (ie $A2) I know how to copy a complete column and then transpose it but I was wondering if I could accomplish it in a formula. Thanks in advance E |

Here's another approach
=OFFSET($A$1,COLUMN()-COLUMN($B:$B),0) where $B is the column where you first enter the formula (and will return the value in A1). "Evad" wrote in message ...

In A10: =INDIRECT("A"&COLUMN()) .... INDIRECT is unambiguously volatile. INDEX doesn't seem to be. If so, then =INDEX($A:$A,COLUMN()) would be more efficient since there would presumably be many such formulas. |
