    Skipping 5 rows and then dragging formula down

    I would like a formula that produces the cell C2. I would then drag that formula down to the next cell and that would produce C7, after that C12, then C17 and so on....

    Very much appreciate any help


    Thanks,
    Zack

    This depends what row the formula is in but works in row 1

    ="C"&(ROW()-1)*5+2

    Adjust +2 accordingly depending on what row you are pasting this to.

    Use the INDIRECT formula on the result of this to get what you want

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.

    Re: Skipping 5 rows and then dragging formula down

    I think there was some miscommunication on my part...Basically I want cell A1 on sheet 2 to identify the value of whatever is in cell A1 on sheet 1. Then, cell A2 on sheet 2 would bring up the value of cell A6 on sheet 1, and so on...

    I attached an example

    Thanks

    Try this in Sheet2 A1:
    =OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1,(ROW()-1)*5,0)

    Hope this helps
