    Problems with auto numbering a column downwards

    Dear all,

    I would like to 'auto number' a column downwards.

    It concerns the part B$1:B$2106;0), it should change to C, D and so forth when I 'drag down' the formula in the column.


    =INDIRECT(ADRES(VERGELIJKEN($A$2;'Input Analytics'!B$1:B$106;0)+B$6;VERGELIJKEN($A8;'Input Analytics'!$A$1:$AA$1;0);;;$B$5))

    Anyone any idea?

    PS I am using the Dutch version of Excel so I suppose 'VERGELIJKEN' is 'COMPARE'

    Another idea:
    =INDIRECT(ADRES(VERGELIJKEN($A$2;indirect("'Input Analytics'!" &address(1,row()+1) & ":" & address(106,row()+1));0)+B$6;VERGELIJKEN($A8;'Input Analytics'!$A$1:$AA$1;0);;;$B$5))

    Re: Problems with auto numbering a column downwards

    Hi B. Johnson,

    Almost but not quite yet. Maybe you could have a look at the example attached?

    Idea is that in the output sheets (Eng, NL) information is sourced from:
    1) Input Adsense; and
    2: Input Analytics

    The output depends on the cell A1 (input Adsense) or A2 (input Analytics).
    As these names / codes may be in a different row per each week. These need to be 'read' accordingly. With the formula I mentioned earlier it does not change the 'lookup' column for each week.

    If you take cell B8 in Sheet 'Eng' as example it is correct (sourced from B). I have edited cell B9 manually (it is sourced from column C) it is correct as well. However I would love to 'auto number'/dragdown the cells. As I need to perform this action for 15 sheets in total and 52 weeks

    Hope you can help!

    Regards,
    Robbert

    Re: Problems with auto numbering a column downwards

    Hi B. Johnson,

    Thanks for the effort! However the formula does not yet provide the outcome as it should.
    I have added some additional data in the 'Input Analytics' and 'Input Adsense' sheets that should be reflected in the 'Eng' output sheet.
    In the output sheet cell
    B10 - should show cell D4 of 'Analytics' namely D2 + 2
    C10 - should show cell E22 of 'Analytics' namely E20 + 2
    Each week is one column to the right. The row might differ, hence the check with $A$2 of the output sheet

    In the output cell. for the 'Adsense' part.
    F10 should show cell E10, namely F9 minus -1 column and +1 row
    F110 should show cell G17, namely H16 minus -1 column and + 1 row.

    Dankjewel voor deze input. Dit was reeds opgemerkt / meegenomen in een andere reactie. Helaas was daar mijn probleem nog niet mee opgelost.

    I have added some additional data in the 'Input Analytics' and 'Input Adsense' sheets that should be reflected in the 'Eng' output sheet.
    In the output sheet cell
    B10 - should show cell D4 of 'Analytics' namely D2 + 2
    C10 - should show cell E22 of 'Analytics' namely E20 + 2
    Each week is one column to the right. The row might differ, hence the check with $A$2 of the output sheet

    In the output cell. for the 'Adsense' part.
    F10 should show cell E10, namely F9 minus -1 column and +1 row
    F110 should show cell G17, namely H16 minus -1 column and + 1 row.
