Chapter 12 Dictionary of Functions 255
OFFSET
The OFFSET function retrieves a range of cells that is the specified number of rows and
columns away from the specified base cell.
OFFSET(base, row-offset, column-offset, [rows], [columns])
 base: The address of the cell from which the offsets are measured.
 row-offset: The number of rows from the base cell to the target cell. 0 means the
target cell is in the same row as the base cell. A negative number means the target is
to the left of the base.
 column-offset: The number of columns from the base cell to the target cell. 0 means
the target is in the same column as the base cell. A negative number means the
target is above the base.
 rows: Optional; the number of rows to retrieve starting with the offset location. If
omitted, 1 is used.
 columns: Optional; the number of columns to retrieve starting with the offset
location. If omitted, 1 is used.
OR
The OR function returns TRUE if any argument is true and FALSE otherwise.
OR(expression, [expression, . . .])
 expression: One or more logical or numeric expressions.
Notes
If expression is a numeric expression, a value of 0 is interpreted as FALSE and any
nonzero value is interpreted as TRUE.
Examples
OFFSET(A1,5,5) returns the value in cell F6 (the cell 5 columns to the right and 5 rows below cell A1).
OFFSET(G33,0,-1) returns the value in the cell to the left of G33 (the value in F33).
Examples
OR(A1+A2<100,B1+B2<100) returns false if the sums of the indicated cells are both greater than or
equal to 100, and true if at least one of the sums is less than 100.
OR(5,0,6) returns true because at least one argument is not zero.
