Once we use the transpose, only values are copied. If i want to retain the values with formula in transpose function, is it possible.

HI, is there any way to work out how long there is between 2 times? ie. 09:42 and 10:01 (that is, I want it to show 19 minutes)
Try,
=TEXT(10:01-09:42,”HH:MM:SS”)
SUBTOTAL – which I find is a powerful function, but often overlooked – particularly with the different function numbers that formula uses.
Thanks Dan.
GETPIVOTDATA, I haven’t nailed that one yet…dan.kordelski@gmaildotcom
OFFSET and exact use of Array with detailed example.
Thanks Mohammed Mubin Sayyed
Punnet thanks, May I suggest this, an average subscriber fairly uses excel and functions but in isolation. Every one knows match, offset etc what most need is the combination of these functions to generate more potent practical problem solving forces is the next step I will like you to do after these functions in isolation.
Yeah Iyek. I am trying to give two different examples. one is solo & other is combined with some other function.
Great! Puneet. I am looking forward to this.
OFFSET/MATCH AND ROW/COLUMN
Thanks Iyke.
Index or match
Thanks Angel
I would love others to learn these functions “Indirect, Offset, Match, Index, Vlookup, Mid, Find, Replace, Substitute, Sumif, Sumifs, SumProduct mainly and of course array functions as well.
I would really like to have a better understanding of the Indirect with Row and/or Columns function. Could we include these please.
Thanks Srinivasan
Offset plays a vital role
