Sum of two offset cells

[Craig]

Hi,

I'm having difficulty with this function.

=sum(offset(Sheet6!$B$47,(rows($1:1)-1)*47,0))+(offset(Sheet3!$B$47,rows($1:1)-1)*47,0)))

Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

Try it like this:

=OFFSET(Sheet6!$B$47,(ROWS($1:1)-1)*47,0)+OFFSET(Sheet3!$B$47,(ROWS($1:1)-1)*47,0)

I could swear I tried that earlier and it wouldn't work, but it does now.
Thanks so much. Craig

You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback!

Hi Craig

much better to avoid the volatile offset function altogether.
Try
=INDEX(Sheet6!$B:$B,47+ROWS($1:1)-1)*47)+INDEX(Sheet3!$B:$B,47+ROWS($1:1)-1)*47)
