Sorry, I wasn't clear enought before. I meant the contents ofthe cell as described below:

I would like cell B10 to display the contents of the cell with Column A and (row 20 - the number in cell B9)

Example:
If cell B9 contains the value 3
I would like cell B10 to display the CONTENTS of cell A(20-3) or A17

Thanks.

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
