Is there a way to include in a formula the sum of the values of a row, but starting from a certain cell onto the rest of the row?
Something like =SUM(C5:~)?
A formula's cell range generally has two parts. A5:H5 contains the cells starting at A5 and includes all cells going across row 5 to H5. Similarly, A5:A9 contains the cells starting at A5 and includes all cells going down the column to A9.
You can use the INDEX function to determine the second part of the cell range reference.
'from A5 to the last number or date in row 5
=A5:INDEX(5:5, match(1e99, 5:5))
'from A5 to the last text in row 5
=A5:INDEX(5:5, match("zzz", 5:5))
'from A5 to the last number or date in column A
=A5:INDEX(A:A, match(1e99, A:A))
'from A5 to the last text in column A
=A5:INDEX(A:A, match("zzz", A:A))
To SUM from D5 to the last number in row 5,
=SUM(D5:INDEX(5:5, match(1e99, 5:5)))
This method is preferred when creating dynamic named ranged (with formulas as the Refers to:) over the OFFSET function as INDEX is non-volatile while OFFSET is volatile and will recalculate whenever anything in your workbook changes.
=SUM(C5:XFD5)
Tested and it works. The last column is XFD, so you're summing on everything right of C5.
This would work:
=SUM(5:5)-SUM(A5:B5)
as would
=SUM(C5:XFD5)
as XFD (16384) corresponds to the maximum number of columns.
try this:
=SUM(E3:E)enter image description here
so the result will be 6, as you starter from
certain cell.

I have an Excel 2 worksheet workbook - 'Dairy' and 'Production'
Formula in 'Production' E10 is 'Dairy'!I33
I want the Formula in 'Production' E11 to be 'Dairy'!L33 (an increment of 3 columns, but same row.)
I cannot use Alt EIR, because it only increments the cell value (I33) by one column (to J33).
What formula can I use to increase the I33 by 3 columns to L33, then in the next cell/E11 increase the L33 to O33, and so on?
EXAMPLE -
Production cell number E10 E11 E12 E13
Production cell value D!I33 D!L33 D!O33 D!R33
thank you,
Mike
INDEX typically uses less calculation cycles than OFFSET and this benefit increases the more formulas you have.
=INDEX(Dairy!33:33, 1, (COLUMN(A:A)-1)*3+9)
Put that under E10 and drag right (and down if needed).
If E10 is actually the cell you want the formula and you are going to drag it down then use this in E10 and drag down.
=INDEX(Dairy!$33:$33, 1, (ROW(1:1)-1)*3+9)
You can use Offset formula which returns a reference to a range that is a specified number of rows and columns from a cell or range of cells. The reference that is returned can be a single cell or a range of cells. You can specify the number of rows and the number of columns to be returned.
Syntax:
=OFFSET(reference, rows, cols, [height], [width])
Solution:
Cell E10 Formula : =OFFSET(Dairy!I$33,0,0,1,1)
Cell E11 Formula : =OFFSET(Dairy!I$33,0,3,1,1)
Cell E12 Formula : =OFFSET(Dairy!I$33,0,6,1,1)
and so on....
To make it completely dynamic, link the third argument to the current row. For e.g.
Cell E10 Formula : =OFFSET(Dairy!I$33,0,MOD(ROW(A10),10)*3,1,1)
I have a work sheet in which there are several cells with a specific entry - let's say "A". These are not all in the same rows/columns. After each cell is a date.
I need to count the number of cells containing "A" which also have a specific date in the cell immediately to its right. I've tried combinations of Countifs and Indirect, with no success. How can I achieve this?
This counts the number of times that there is A in column A and 1 in column B
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$1:$A$5="A")*($B$1:$B$5=1))
This outputs in cell D1
Not too difficult.
I have created a sample sheet with 8 rows and 5 columns of data.
See below, the formula in cell C12 counts the number of occurrences where the a cell with a date of October 31, 2017 is directly to the right of a cell that contains the text A.
If you want more info as to how this works, read on:
When searching for cells that contain A, you don't search in the last column of the data (in this case, column E) because it is impossible for a column to the right to have any date in it. This is why a portion of the formula says A1:D8="A" instead of A1:E8="A". This is the same reasoning why we start searching for a date in column B rather than column A in the formula.
You can achieve this with a helper row. Add additional row on top of your Worksheet. In cell "A1" enter formula below.
=COUNTIFS(A2:A2000,"A",B2:B2000,"YourDate")
Drag this formula to the rightmost of where you have data, then simply sum all values returned by formula.
Edited: So I made the question more complicated. If I would like to do a 'what if ' analysis which requires to be able to refer the last row to sum from another cell to the sumif formula. How can I do that?
Just drop the row numbers from your formula and use the entire columns:
=SUMIF(A:A,">4",B:B)
The beauty is that SUMIF will disregard non-nmeric rows anyway.
To sum up and stop at a certiain row, you can use SUMIFS with ROW:
=SUMIFS(B:B,A:A,">4",C:C,"<" & D2)
Where D2 holds the row number using the formula =ROW(<CELL>), i.e: =ROW(A2) in cell C2:
I am using INDEX(MATCH) to look up a value in one column using criteria from two different cells in another sheet. Here is the formula I am trying to use:
=INDEX(Sheet1!P:P,MATCH(1,(Sheet1!A:A=Sheet2!C$1)*(Sheet1!B:B=Sheet2!$B2),0))
Sheet1 is the array and column P contains the values I am wanting the formula to return. Column A in Sheet1 contains the values for the first criteria and Column B in Sheet1 contains the values for the second criteria. The criteria are represented in C1 and B2 of Sheet2. This will change as the cell is copied. Can anyone see any errors in this formula? It is returning a "value is not available for the formula or function."
This will have to be entered as an array formula¹ so the full column references should be cut down to a minimum size or you will experience unnecessary calculation lag as hundreds of thousands of blank cells are processed.
With text in column A,
=index(Sheet1!$P$1:index(Sheet1!$P:$P, match("zzz", Sheet1!$A:$A)),
match(1, (Sheet1!$A$1:index(Sheet1!$A:$A, match("zzz", Sheet1!$A:$A))=Sheet2!C$1)*
(Sheet1!$B$1:index(Sheet1!$B:$B, match("zzz", Sheet1!$A:$A))=Sheet2!$B2), 0))
With numbers or dates in column A,
=index(Sheet1!$P$1:index(Sheet1!$P:$P, match(1e99, Sheet1!$A:$A)),
match(1, (Sheet1!$A$1:index(Sheet1!$A:$A, match(1e99, Sheet1!$A:$A))=Sheet2!C$1)*
(Sheet1!$B$1:index(Sheet1!$B:$B, match(1e99, Sheet1!$A:$A))=Sheet2!$B2), 0))
You did not have absolute reference anchors (e.g. $ ) in the original Sheet1 range references but the way you had them set up for the criteria from Sheet2 led me to believe that you required them for both row and column.
If you have column header labels in row 1, change A1, B1 and P1 to A2, B2 and P2.
¹ Array formulas need to be finalized with Ctrl+Shift+Enter↵. If entered correctly, Excel with wrap the formula in braces (e.g. { and }). You do not type the braces in yourself. Once entered into the first cell correctly, they can be filled or copied down or right just like any other formula. Try and reduce your full-column references to ranges more closely representing the extents of your actual data. Array formulas chew up calculation cycles logarithmically so it is good practise to narrow the referenced ranges to a minimum. See Guidelines and examples of array formulas for more information.
I need to fill a column in Sheet1 starting on G112 from Sheet4 starting from D2.
So Sheet1 G112 =Sheet4!D2
G113 would have =Sheet4!D15
and so on. I also need every 13th row from other columns as well and I don't want to have to copy the reference for every cell I need. Is there a way to fill a column with every 13th row so I don't need to do it manually?
You can use this:
=INDIRECT("Sheet4!A"&((ROW()-112)*13)+2)
Note: This formula works only of the cell you're inputting it the first time is in row 112. You'll have to adjust it otherwise here:
=INDIRECT("Sheet4!A"&((ROW()-112)*13)+2)
^^^
To adjust the rows to skip each time, adjust here:
=INDIRECT("Sheet4!A"&((ROW()-112)*13)+2)
^^
And to adjust the offset from the beginning (which is a minimum of 1, otherwise you'll get a reference of A0), adjust here:
=INDIRECT("Sheet4!A"&((ROW()-112)*13)+2)
^
Try the INDIRECT function:
If B1 contains INDIRECT("A" & C1) and C1 contains 6, B1 will show the value of the A6 cell. Using that function, you can put the desired indexes in a column (e.g. C), and extract the values from another column (e.g. A).
