In the continuing vain effort solve the old "how can I concatenate an entire
range of cells" question, I have been trying to trick certain Excel functions by passing parameters that aren't strictly valid. In the process, I have come up with a fluke in the OFFSET function that I cannot explain and I thought perhaps one of you could shed some light. (Excel 2003, SP2). To reproduce this, enter the following values in the corresponding cells: A1: a A2: b A3: c In cell B1, enter this formula (NOT array-entered): =OFFSET($A$1,0,0,{3,2,1}) Now copy down to B2 ad B3. The results I get for B1, B2, B3 are... a, b, c And if I copy it down to cell B4 (or, more precisely, on any row other than 1, 2, or 3), I get #VALUE! Yes, I know the array is an invalid [height] argument, but still, interesting, no? Anybody have any thoughts on this? Ryan |
