    How to deal with {=TABLE(A216,B216)}?

    What does the formula {=TABLE(A2,B216)} mean, and how do I edit this formula or find a range it refers to?

    Tried help and google, yet search seems to ignore {

    the {} means it is an array formula. Table seems to be a custom function, or at least one I do not have installed. It seems to be defining a table. So, logically {=TABLE(A2,B216)} returns an array with the data within the defined range. Changing the cell addresses will enlarge or shrink the table.

    This function would almost certianly have to be used in conjunction with some other function to return a value, since this would not be displayable in a single cell.
