I need to show the following formula for 4 rows in a single column, the increase by 1 for another 4 rows, then repeat... this has to be done for several hundred rows...

Is there an easy way?

='Cross & Step Main'!A$3
='Cross & Step Main'!A$3
='Cross & Step Main'!A$3
='Cross & Step Main'!A$3
='Cross & Step Main'!A$4
='Cross & Step Main'!A$4
='Cross & Step Main'!A$4
='Cross & Step Main'!A$4
='Cross & Step Main'!A$5
='Cross & Step Main'!A$5
='Cross & Step Main'!A$5
... etc

I've asked other questions, and everybody is always so helpful... THANK YOU!

Let's assume you enter the first formula on some sheet in cell A1.

=INDEX('Cross & Step Main'!A$3:A$100,CEILING(ROWS(A$1:A1)/4,1))

Copy down as needed. Adjust for the correct end of range A100.

Thanks - I will work with this.

This is the second question I've had that uses the INDEX function for the answer. I need to learn more about this operation -- any suggestions as to the best (and most economical) way to do this?

Thanks again for your help!

Maybe search the forum for posts that contain the word INDEX.

Thanks again for your help!
You're welcome! :cool:
