XL4: Formula with SELECT() and OFFSET() Is Incorrect

ID: Q98958

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Excel for Windows, versions 4.0, 4.0a
  • Microsoft Excel for the Macintosh, version 4.0

SUMMARY

On page 245 of "User's Guide 2" in the first paragraph, the example for the OFFSET() function reads: 


   =SELECT(OFFSET(ACTIVE.CELL(),B,-3))


This is a misprint. The letter B should be the number 8 (eight). The function example should read: 


   =SELECT(OFFSET(ACTIVE.CELL(),8,-3))


REFERENCES

"User's Guide 2," version 4.0, page 245.
