    Copy Formula with Excel remembering the cell difference

    Is there a way to copy down a formula remembering the cell difference? For example:

    A4:A10
    A11:A17

    I would then like Excel to automatically put A18:A24 in the next row rather than A12:A18

    What cell are you starting in? What does the formula look like?

    Ideally, post a sample workbook and you'll get more interest.

    You can use OFFSET

    =SUM(OFFSET(A4:A10, 7,))

    As TMShucks said, would be easier with an example. I didn't have any luck with zbor's

    I came up with this

    =SUM(OFFSET($A$4,(ROWS($A$1:A1)-1)*7,0,7))

    substitute commas with semi-colons if your region settings requires
