    Skip every other line while dragging formula

    I would like to drag my formula down and skip every other row, but still only adjust the formula by one row

    ex
    DESIRED RESULT
    1ST ROW A1+B1
    2ND ROW BLANK
    3RD ROW A2+B2
    4TH ROW BLANK
    5TH ROW A3+B3

    DRAGGING 1ST AND 2ND ROW DOWN RESULTS IN

    1ST A1+B1
    2ND BLANK
    3RD A3+B3
    4TH BLANK
    5TH A5+B5

    Any Ideas I may need to come at this from a totally different direction.

    is there another criteria you could be using to do the sum instead of just A+B? maybe attaching a sample sheet coudl spark some ideas.

    Try...in C1

    =IF(MOD(ROWS(C$1:C1),2),SUM(INDEX(A$1:B$1000,INT((ROWS(C$1:C1)-1)/2)+1,0)),"")

    Change C$1:C1 to your start cell
