Using excel 2007 on Vista
I have a spreadsheet with many mini ranges consisting of 5 cells.
In the next right hand column I would like to multiply the top cell in each mini range by 110%, the next cell down by 120%, then 130% etc.. till all 5 cells are done.
An example would be ~
Cell a1 holds the value 10
Cell a2 holds the value 20
Cell a3 holds the value 24
Cell a4 holds the value 33
Cell a5 holds the value 37
Now in B1 I would like to Multiply cell A1 being the top cell in that mini range by 110%.
In B2 multiply the value in A2 by 120% etc...
If I define a name ~ Topcell with this formula =A1*(1+ROW(A1)*0.1)
I then enter in Cell B1 =Topcell and fill down for 5 cells I get the correct answers
My problem is if one of the mini range starts in cell G8 this named formula won't work.
Is there a named formula that could be defined so that it works in any mini range anywhere on the sheet giving the correct answers to all the mini ranges?
Cheers
