Try;

Hi all

I have a spreadsheet with dates in row 3 going from today till the end of
the year i.e 26/apr/2010

In row 16 directly below the date i have a number i.e. 12

What i would like to do is: on another sheet, reference todays date i.e.
26/apr/2010 and display the number 12, but i would like this to happen
when
the user opens the sheet automatically

In summary, tomorrow the 27/apr/2010 i would like the formula to look at
todays date and then display the numer that is 13 rows directly below it

Is this possible?

Thanks you for your help

Derek
