    how to copy a series of Data to visible cell only and keep them in a series

    OK I have a worksheet that is copying cells from another worksheet and totals them using 4 total rows at 41,42,43 &44

    So I have a lot of data about 7000 lines and this configuration above will repeat itself every 44 lines

    I'm using a formula starting at a2 the formula is "=mainlogbook!A2" --- simple enough!

    NOW! I need to copy this formula through A-AB up to 7000, skipping 4 rows starting at 41,42,43,44 then skipping 84,85,86,87 ..... and so on

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SO Ive tried hiding the rows
    then copying one cell
    Then selecting visible cells only
    Then pasting the formula

    The Cell at A40 reads "=mainlogbook!A40"
    A41-A444 does not have formulas since it was hidden and this is what I want
    BUT on A45 the formula is =mainlogbook!A45 ***Broken Series of Data not suitable for me****


    IT WORKS! Kinda: Problem is the formula that carries over the hidden rows skips 4 numbers forward
    Example
    Formula at A45 is =mainlogbook!A45 (this not correct for me; I need it to read =mainlogbook!A41 which is the continuation of the series of data that its pulling from.


    Does anyone know a solution to this , I would be forever grateful
    Thanks

    Ok here is a sample


    just imagine it being a lot longer and more tedious to copy formulas to each page
    on the printable logbook tab skipping 3 lines each time.


    The actual Printable logbook tab is about 500 pages
