    How would type the arguments of the sequence function if I wanted to number 5000 rows starting at 1 and stepping by 0.01?

    • @MyExcelOnline
      @MyExcelOnline  10 месяцев назад +1

      You could try this: =SEQUENCE(5000,,,0.01)

    I wan to display a sequence by 2 like 2 4 6 8 10 but instead it display 2 3 4 5 6 7 8. Where did i go wrong? I ctrl drag 2 and 4 in order to sequence it.

    • @MyExcelOnline
      @MyExcelOnline  4 месяца назад +1

      Thanks for the question! For the 4th argument (it's an optional one), use a 2. So if I had one row and wanted it to be 2-4-6-8-10, I would use this function: =SEQUENCE(5,,2,2). Try pasting that into Excel and see if it works for you.

      Hi. Great question. What version of Excel are you using? This function works with Office 365.

    I want to list the number 1 8 times, then a blank cell, then the number 2 8 times and so on. I also want it to stop after listing the number 18 8 times. So let's say I copy the formula to Row 300, I don't want to see numbers greater than 18. Could you help me with a formula/function, please?

    • @MyExcelOnline
      @MyExcelOnline  2 месяца назад

      I think for this, you may need to use VBA and do a loop that will loop. So you could set a counter for 1-18 and then loop 18 times. So something like this:
      Dim intCounter As Integer
      Dim intRepeat As Integer
      Dim rngCurrentCell As Range
      Set rngCurrentCell = Range("A1")
      intCounter = 1
      Do Until intCounter = 19
      intRepeat = 1
      Do Until intRepeat = 9
      rngCurrentCell = intCounter
      intRepeat = intRepeat + 1
      Set rngCurrentCell = rngCurrentCell.Offset(1, 0)
      Loop
      intCounter = intCounter + 1
      Loop

    Hello why when using the sequence formula in a table there is a spill# error.👎 Please help if you can thanks

    • @MyExcelOnline
      @MyExcelOnline  7 месяцев назад +1

      I'd recommend downloading our sample file in the link in the description on RUclips and comparing it with the copy you are using. Sometimes it's a little difference in the formula. Hope that helps!

    What of text number sequence

    • @MyExcelOnline
      @MyExcelOnline  6 месяцев назад

      Hi. Thanks for the question. I think the Sequence function only takes numbers and not letters. You could put A in one cell, B in the next, then C in the next and then select all three and drag down and you should get D then E then F, etc.

    Is there a way to use the sequence formula but skip every other column?

    • @MyExcelOnline
      @MyExcelOnline  2 месяца назад

      I don't think so. But you could get creative maybe with an IF statement also in there?

    • @MyExcelOnline
      @MyExcelOnline  2 месяца назад

      I don't think any of the arguments for SEQUENCE handle that, but you may be able to get creative with an IF statement in there. Or maybe the COLUMN function? Or both?

      Yes. Maybe consider 365? The XLOOKUP function makes it worth it!

    Why do I get #SPILL! ☹️

    • @MyExcelOnline
      @MyExcelOnline  4 месяца назад

      Thanks for the question. #SPILL! usually means the formula is returning multiple values and wants to spread out into more cells. Do you have empty cells next to where you are using the formula? Try the formula out on an empty [art of your spreadsheet and see if that helps.
