    Formulas work in online Google Docs version but not in offline version

    Hi,
    Some of the formulas I used in Google Docs/Drive version wouldn't work offline when I save the book as .xls or .xlsx... please help.

    Re: Formulas work in online Google Docs version but not in offline version

    Sorry it's not a VLOOKUP issue as I originally thought but array formula issue.

    This is the actual culprit:
    =IFERROR(INDEX($E$7:$E$99999, MATCH(0,COUNTIF($O$6:O6, $E$7:$E$99999), 0)),"")
    If I go to the cell containing this formula and hit Ctrl+Shift+Enter, it does work offline, too. However I have to do the same in multiple instances and it's not practical. Is there a way to "force" Excel sheet treating these as array formulas when downloading from Google Docs?

    The online version of this formula goes
    =ArrayFormula(IFERROR(INDEX($E$7:$E$99999, MATCH(0,COUNTIF($O$6:O6, $E$7:$E$99999), 0)),""))
    How can I change it so that it also works offline in Excel 2010?

    Panic over, I fixed it by editing the formula as goes:
    Original formula on Google Docs:
    =ArrayFormula(IFERROR(INDEX($E$7:$E$99999, MATCH(0,COUNTIF($O$6:O6, $E$7:$E$99999), 0)),""))
    Edited formula, works both in Google Docs as well as in offline Excel 2010
    ={(IFERROR(INDEX($E$7:$E$99999, MATCH(0,COUNTIF($O$6:O6, $E$7:$E$99999), 0)),""))}
