Copying a formula but 'skipping' a cell
I have a spreadsheet with 2 workbooks. One is an automatic data input from a
GPS logger which provides a CSV file that imports a comma delimited format into discrete lines. The input comes in from this worksheet (import) as Data Set A1 Data Set B1 Data Set A2 Data Set B2 The main worksheet (main) needs to display these as Data Set A1 Data Set B1 Data Set A2 Data Set B2 I've done a sample for 10 data sets (e.g. first bit of A1 is =import!C14) but I need 1000 lines in the main worksheet. Problem is that when I copy and paste the formula it increments the cell reference by 1 and I need it to increment the cell reference by 2 otherwise I have to edit all the formulae by hand and with 20 fields per line this will take ages! Any shortcuts for this? Thanks Mike |

One way:
A1: =INDEX(import!C:C,ROW()*2+12) B1: =INDEX(import!C:C,ROW()*2+13) In article , "Mike Langensiepen" wrote: I have a spreadsheet with 2 workbooks.
