    Offset not displaying result when there is Indirect

    Hi there,

    In a cell of Sheet1, i have this formula:

    =OFFSET(Sheet2!$D$1,LARGE(IF(Sheet2!$F$3:F$1033>0,ROW(Sheet2!$D$3:D$1033)),$A12)-1,0,ROWS(Sheet2!$F$3:F$1033),4)


    It works when Sheet2 data is not using the function Indirect (if data is manually entered, the above formula in sheet1 function and display the result. But if I use formula Indirect in the Sheet2, then formula in sheet1 will display nothing.

    But in sheet2,
    result in column D is date, ex: D1 =INDIRECT("'0" & A3 & "'!a1") (and the result is date, ex: 14/11/2021)
    result in column F is text, ex: F1 = INDIRECT("'0" & A3 & "'!a2") (and example of result is: University)

    Not working with these trials:
    I have tried Ctrl+Shift+enter
    I have tried n(Indirect(... or n(offset(...
    I have tried Iterative Calculation on
    I also tried copy value only of sheet2 to sheet 3, and Offset in sheet1 refer to sheet3 instead of sheet2
    I have tried reset columns/cells format type to "general" or the "date" and "text" or "number" accordingly or "automatic"

    Does it mean that offset can't take data from Indirect?
    Or I have missed something?

    thanks a lot

    To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook. The workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook.

    To attach a file to your post,
    click advanced (next to quick post),
    scroll down until you see "manage file",
    click that and select "add files" (top right corner).
    click "select files" find your file, click "open" click "upload" click 'done" bottom right. click "submit reply"

    Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
    You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
