    Replace OFFSET in SUM()

    Hi

    I have a formula that Sums a range using OFFSET. This ensures that if a row is inserted immediately above the SUM then the value will be included. However, the OFFSET is volatile. Is there an alternative to OFFSET - can I use INDEX somehow?

    Thanks for any ideas

    Re: Replace OFFSET in SUM()

    Do you always want to sum from the row immediately above the cell with the formula in up a certain number of cells, or to D5 each time?

    Re: Replace OFFSET in SUM()

    You do realise that the formula, as presented, missed out the last row of data (immediately before the formula)?

    Re: Replace OFFSET in SUM()

    What, if anything, is above and/or below the column of data and the sum formula?

    Re: Replace OFFSET in SUM()

    Or, by using column C contents to determine the bottom value:

    =SUM(D$1:INDEX(D:D,COUNTA(C:C)+2))

    Note that this mirrors your existing approach and ignores the value immediately above the cell with the formula (but always starts with D5). Change the +2 to +3 if you want to include all the values.

    Hope this helps.
