    formulas in external data table

    Hi, would need to add new counted column into external data table (via query from database). It works, if I count in the same row. But if I want to write formula with second row, it doesn't work, because excel insert range (for example B3). I have data with dates, I need to check, if the second row is the same date or day (or more days later).
    Something like =[@date.offset(1)].
    Is it possible? Of course the problem would be, if sorting would change...
    Thank You.

    Martin

    Re: formulas in external data table

    Is this still for Excel 2016?

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook (yellow banner: HOW TO ATTACH YOUR SAMPLE WORKBOOK). Screenshots are of little practical use as we cannot manipulate them.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.
