Fill Down reference of even number rows

J

I have Excel 2002, I need to reference only even number row
coordinates, and I would like to do it with a fill down:

=B4
=B6
=B8
=B10
...
...


But if I select the first two cells and do a fill down, it duplicates
the coordinates?

=B4
=B6
=B6
=B8
=B8
=B10
=B10


HELP!

This formula references cell B4
and contains no volatile functions
(which re-calc whenever any other cell re-calcs and
can make a workbook sluggish):
A1: =INDEX(B:B,ROWS($1:1)*2+2)

Copy that formula into A2 and down as far as you need
to reference B6, B8....etc

Is that something you can work with?
