    You need to enable R1C1 formulas i got it to work then. The formula fills down automatically as its a table.

    Hope this helps.

    Sometimes its best to start at the beginning and learn VBA & Excel.

    Please dont ask me to do your work for you, I learnt from Reading books, Recording, F1 and Google and like having all of this knowledge in my head for the next time i wish to do it, or wish to tweak it.
