    Fill cells sequentially but inreasing by 20 cells at a time

    Hi all,
    I have a workbook where in sheet 1 A1 I want it to show results from sheet 2 A1, then in sheet 1 A2 show sheet 2 A21, then sheet 1 A3 to show sheet 2 A41 etc. increasing by 20 cells at a time so that at say sheet 1 A10 it is showing the result from sheet 2 A181. I have tried dragging down with & without the Ctrl button but I don't get the result I want. I have attached an example. Thanks in advance.

    One way
    In Sheet1, put in A1: =OFFSET(Sheet2!$A$1,ROWS($1:1)*20-20,)
    Copy down as far as required

    array formula (Ctrl+Shift+enter)
    =INDEX(Sheet2!$A$1:$A$181,SMALL(IF(LEN(Sheet2!$A$1:$A$181),ROW(Sheet2!$A$1:$A$181)),ROW(1:1)))

    drag down

    I have updated the required formulas in Sheet1, Column D to extrac the data Sheet 2, Column A from cells which are 20 rows apart.

    Let me know if this was your desired result.

    I used the below formula to get the result.

    =INDIRECT("Sheet2!" & ADDRESS((ROW()-1)*20+1,1))

    Nice to see so many ways to solve a problem.
