How to create an offset column

Silvex
6 - Meteoroid

Hello,

 

For an N group of ID´s I need to test the expected behavior. I managed to do this in Excel using, in the Expected ID column, the Offset formula that is =OFFSET(B2,C2,0).

 

Group Given ID Offset Expected ID Result
Group 1 A 0 A OK
Group 1 A -1 A OK
Group 1 B 0 B OK
Group 1 A -3 A OK

 

I tried to do this using the multi-row formula however I have to enter a specific number or rows which in my case is dynamic. I´ve attached an Excel spread sheet with an example. The column I need to create is the Expected ID column.

 

Any help will be appreciated.

 

Thanks!
