Spreadsheets, Substitute Row # with Reference

View Count: 615

The cell reference format is [Study ID].[Subgraph number]@[Row number]. Is there any way to substitute the Row number with a reference (e.g. J30 or ($J$30+2)). It doesn't seem to work for me. If not it may be a good functionality item for adding?
Thanks

I use the OFFSET function to create a dynamic range based on the Number of Rows:

=MAX(ID0.SG5@3:OFFSET(ID0.SG5@3,$J$30-1,0))
or
=MAX(F3:OFFSET(F3,$J$30-1,0))
This will give you the max volume in all of column F, because the offset is 999 from row 3.

You can use OFFSET in formulas like this:
=AVERAGE(ID0.SG4@3:OFFSET(ID0.SG4@3,10,0))
or
=AVERAGE(E3:OFFSET(E3,10,0))
This will give you a simple moving average of the Last price, with a length of 10.

Hi tomgilb,

you are a lifesaver :), well, you've certainly made my life a lot easier. I'm trying to reference the number of rows in J30 so that whenever I change the row number in the chart studies settings I don't have to go into the spreadsheet and change all the calculation based on the total number of rows. This works perfect.
Thanks so much
TomA
