OFFSET(Reference, Rows, Columns, Height, Width)

where,

  • is a reference cell or base cell of the offset,
  • represents the number of cells up or down the reference cell,
  • represents the number of cells left or right to the reference cell,
  • is an optional value that represents the number of rows to be displayed as the output, and
  • is an optional value that represents the number of columns to be displayed as the output.

OFFSET() displays a specified number of rows and columns from the reference cell or the base cell.

Description

OFFSET(Reference, Rows, Columns, Height, Width)

  • OFFSET function is used display the value of cell that is specified number or rows or columns away from the reference.
  • Offset reference should be within the spreadsheet, else Calci displays an error message.
  • can be positive or negative. If is positive, it means move down from the reference. If is negative, it means move up from the reference.
  • can be positive or negative. If is positive, it means move right from the reference. If is negative, it means move left from the reference.
  • If or is omitted, Calci assumes it to be the same Height and Width as the reference.
  • and should be > 1, else Calci displays #N/A error message.

Examples

Consider the following examples that demonstrate the use of OFFSET function:

Fruit Color Quantity
Orange Orange 20
Banana Yellow 30
Apple Red 18
Strawberry Red 25 
=OFFSET(A2,2,2,1,1) : Returns the value in cell that is located two rows down (2) and one row to the right (2) from A2. Displays 18 as the output.
=OFFSET(B3,1,-1) : Returns the value in cell that is located one row down (1) and one row to the left (-1) from B3. Displays Apple as the output.
