    Drag a formula right one cell, reference cell jumps four cells?

    I I am created a table that references the exact values of cells in a different table. I have to drag this formula right 100 cells, so it will be tedious to input these manually.

    Example:

    New table created in column P & Q, referencing data in a table in columns A through N.

    P39: '=D4' Q39: '=I4'
    P40: '=D5' Q40: '=I5'
    P41: '=D6' Q41: '=I6'

    Thanks in advance.

    In Column O i used below mentioned formula and it works.

    =address(row($d$4),column($d$4)*counta($o$39:o39)+1*4)
    Above formula will create range you have to use indirect function to get value.

    On second thoughts... use this, drag across & down as needed

    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =OFFSET($D$4,ROWS($1:1)-1,(COLUMNS($A:A)-1)*5,,)


    I assume that the first cell that you want to copy is D4. Is that correct?
