Is it possible to have portion of a formula change based on the value in another cell?
For example, the D29 would change based on a value in another cell.
(D18:D29)
Lets say, Cell A1 has a value of 12.
I would want this to change such as:
(D18:D41)
Basically (D18:D"29+A1")
I hope that makes sense lol
Thanks for any help,
Nick
There may be various ways to do this. Knowing a little more about your particular context and why you need the range to be dynamic in this way would help. Can you attach a workbook?

I don't have a sample workbook yet.
But to simplify this, I am can have the second part of the formula (D18:D "the value from cell A1"
Is that possible? Where the value in cell A1 would complete the range.
You may need to look into the INDIRECT function: https://www.exceltip.com/summing/sum...eferences.html
You would use the INDIRECT function to do what you are looking to do.
Put in a SUM formula, it would look like this:
=SUM(INDIRECT("D18:D"&A1))
63falcondude, I tested that out and looks like it will work.
What is the best way to add that to:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A15=$D$18:$D$29),--(YEAR($B$18:$B$29)=YEAR(S23)))
My attempt failed lol:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(INDIRECT(A15="$D$18:$D"&A1),--(YEAR(INDIRECT("$B$18:$B"&A1)=YEAR(S23))))))
Try this:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A15=INDIRECT("D18:D"&A1)),--(YEAR(INDIRECT("B18:B"&A1))=YEAR(S23)))
