drag and drop formulas

[Bram]

I have a problem. This is what my sheet looks like:
sheet1
In column A is the name of the company. in column B the name of the company
and In column c is the monthly return of the company. I'm interested in the
compounded half year return. In a new worksheet (sheet2)I want the company
name in column A, the compounded half year return (first six months) in
column b and the compounded half year return (last six months) in column c.
The formula for the compounded half year return(first six months in cell b2
is
=((1+'sheet1'!a2)*(1+'sheet1'!a3)*(1+'sheet1'!a4)*(1+'sheet1'!a5)*(1+'sheet1'!a6)*(1+'sheet1'!a7))-1

The formula for the compounded half year return(last six months in cell c2 is:

=((1+Sheet1!A8)*(1+Sheet1!A9)*(1+Sheet1!A10)*(1+Sheet1!A11)*(1+Sheet1!A12)*(1+Sheet1!A13))-1

I want to drag down this formula so that the formula for cell b3 is

=((1+Sheet1!A14)*(1+Sheet1!A15)*(1+Sheet1!A16)*(1+Sheet1!A17)*(1+Sheet1!A18)*(1+Sheet1!A19))-1

and so on.

I hope my question is clear enough so that somebody can help me out.

Thanx and regards

Bram

Use a helper column C, otherwise the formula will be very very long:
In C2: =2+(CELL("row";C2)-2)*12

In B2: A2 A3
=(1+INDIRECT("Sheet1!A"&C2)*(1+INDIRECT("Sheet1!A"&C2+1))) ... and so on
A7
until INDIRECT("Sheet1!A"&C2+5)


and fill down!
