Pulling Down array Formula - Need To Change absolute reference

Hi, I have the following array formula

Formula:

Please Login or Register  to view this content.

which I've to pull down 100 rows.
I have kept the reference locked because it has to be pulled across columns also.

Presently, I am manually editing the reference for each row ( Eg: changing F2:F22 to G2:G22) which is taking a lot of time.

Please provide a solution


Regards

Could you not just leave the column references absolute while making the row references relative?

I'm attaching the file so that its clear.

Try

in AA2


=IFERROR(INDEX($F$2:$Y$22,SMALL(IF(INDEX($F$2:$Y$22,,ROWS($F$2:F2))<>"",ROW($F$2:$F$22)-1),COLUMN(A:A)),ROWS($F$2:F2)),"")

excellent!!!
Thanks a lot JohnTopley


Could you give a small explanation?

=IFERROR(INDEX($F$2:$Y$22,SMALL(IF(INDEX($F$2:$Y$22,,ROWS($F$2:F2))<>"",ROW($F$2:$F$22)-1),COLUMN(A:A)),ROWS($F$2:F2)),"")

INDEX($F$2:$Y$22............

selects the total range .... with ROWS($F$2:F2) being the COLUMN number so we select column F [ ROWS($F$2:F2)=1 ], then G [ ROWS($F$2:F3)=2] ..etc


INDEX($F$2:$Y$22,,ROWS($F$2:F2))<>"",ROW($F$2:$F$22)-1),COLUMN(A:A))

the highlighted again part selects the COLUMN of the INDEX range so as the formula is copied down ROWS($F$2:F2) is incremented by 1 so we get the first column in the range - F, then the second - G ...etc.

COLUMN(A:A)) is the index for the SMALL: as the formula is dragged across columns this has values of 1, 2, 3 etc.

Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot.
