I have a formula in one cell in a column in Sheet1 (e.g. Cell C3)
The formula in the cell is ='Sheet2'!H15
I want to copy the formula from Cell C3 to Cell C15, but I only want the formula to move one cell
so I want the formula to be ='Sheet2'!H16
Is there a way of doing this?
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Thanks for coming back to me.
I tried the formula but excel kept locking up, not sure why.
Any other thoughts?
I have found a temporary solution by entering the row number in a column and using indirect to do the formula.

Hi, it's working my end, which might suggest it's a problem with your set-up / workbook - did you alter the suggestion at all?

Even so, I can't imagine there's anything in the suggestion that could cause Excel to crash.

Apologies for not saying. I've had to look at it a different way.
Yes I did change it so it would work with a different spreadsheet
What I have now is the following

I have a formula in one cell in D column in Sheet called (Master) (e.g. Cell D67)
The formula in the cell is ='Sheet1'!B1276
I want to copy the formula from Cell D67 to Cell D68, but I want the formula to move 44 cells
so I want the formula to end up ='Sheet1'!B1320

and then be able to repeat as many times as needed.

Thankyou if you can help.

You could try this in D67 of the master sheet copied down.

=INDEX(Sheet1!$B$1276:$B$9999,((ROWS(D$67:D67)-1)*44)+1)
