    Changing Range of Cells by one cell

    I have information from A1 to G1 down to A10 to G10

    I want to reuse that information in a report but it only can bring in one "line" of data at a time.

    So, I want to start at A30 and =A1. That will bring in A1's data, but when I do that I want B1:G1 to come in automatically. Then when I type in =A2, B2:G2 data comes in automatically, etc.
    I know I can type in =A1, then copy cell right and that will do it, but there are other considerations, so I can't just "copy right", then adjust as needed. So it has to be something similar to: (A30) =A1 (B30)=A30+1 (that just adds one to the previous cell not brings in B30's info).

    I think it would help if you posted a sample workbook.

    To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook, the workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook. Don't upload a picture when you have a workbook question. None of us is inclined to recreate your data. Upload the workbook and manually add an 'after' situation so that we can see what you expect. In addition clearly explain how you get the results..
    To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main 'New Post' or 'New Thread' page and not 'Quick Reply'.
    To use the main 'New Post' page, click the 'Post Reply' button in the relevant thread.

    On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled 'Manage Attachments'.
    Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments.

    You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page.
    Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.

    To upload a file from your computer, click the 'Browse' button and locate the file.

    To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page.
    Once you have completed one of the boxes, click 'Upload'.

    Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
    You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.

    Am I too unclear on what needs to be done?

    In Cell E49:
    =INDEX($D$13:$T$18,MATCH($D49,$C$13:$C$18,0),COLUMN()-4)

    Copy the formula to the other cells on the row.
