    Transfer formula in one workbook to another workbook - what am i not doing correctly

    I am trying to adopt formulas from one workbook (Rolling Averages) to a second workbook (Sample) but I am not getting the same results. Somebody Please tell me what I am not doing correctly.

    I would like cells DC5:DG5 in the ‘Sample’ Workbook to have the same content as cells O8:S8 in the ‘Rolling Averages’ workbook.

    Attached are the two sheets.Rolling Averages.xlsx

    Sample.xlsxSample.xlsx

    Are you looking for sample.xlsx to be a stand alone document in its own right or to reference Rolling Averages data?

    It should be a standalone.

    But the positioning should not be altered.

    Looks to me like the formula for the helper columns is off by a factor of two. There would seem to be a couple, at least, of ways to rectify that situation, however in the following modification to that formula, I changed the constant -4 to -2:

    In the attached copy of the 'Sample' file the resulting values in DC5:DG24 seem to match those of the 'Rolling Averages' file.
    Let me know if you have any questions.
