Moving a row of data from a specified point

RNSEG

I have this set of data here below. What i would like to do is move the data from row 4 column 4 (bolded number) to the right by one column each. How do i go on about this? I was thinking of use the very last cell being [Null] and use IF formulas to move but not sure how to write it. 

 

 Opening Shares  Opening Net NAV Per Share  Share Subs/Reds Transfers  Share Consolidation  Closing Shares  Closing Net NAV Per Share  Closing Value  Net Return 
                                                            2,390.92                                       702.04                            -                                   (2,390.92)                         -                       -                       -  -2.54%
                                                         24,872.75                                       713.39            (11,826.74)                                               -             13,046.01             691.06  9,015,629.73-3.13%
                                                                        -                                                  -                              -                                     2,368.03             2,368.03             690.80  1,635,823.57-2.52%
                                                            6,595.65                                       713.39                            -                                     6,595.65                691.06  4,558,019.83-3.13%[null]

 

Desired output: 

 

 Opening Shares  Opening Net NAV Per Share  Share Subs/Reds Transfers  Share Consolidation  Closing Shares  Closing Net NAV Per Share  Closing Value  Net Return 
                                                            2,390.92                                       702.04                            -                                   (2,390.92)                         -                       -                       -  -2.54%
                                                         24,872.75                                       713.39            (11,826.74)                                               -             13,046.01             691.06  9,015,629.73-3.13%
                                                                        -                                                  -                              -                                     2,368.03             2,368.03             690.80  1,635,823.57-2.52%
                                                            6,595.65                                       713.39                            -                                                 -               6,595.65             691.06  4,558,019.83-3.13%

I thought about doing this. IF IsNull([Net Return]) THEN [Closing Value] ELSE [Net Return] ENDIF. Which moves the -3.13% to the right but the 3.13% still remains in the Closing Value column so I can't use the same formula to move it to the right again.

Here is one solution that should work for your use case (Just make sure that the columns are renamed appropriately with the Select Tool; this caused me quite the headache...)

Hi @RNSEG 

I hope this works for you.

Multi-Row Formula 2

IF [RowNo] = 4 AND [ColNo] = 4 THEN "-"
ELSEIF [RowNo] = 4 AND [ColNo] > 4 THEN [Row-1:Value]
ELSE [Value]
ENDIF

Thank you for your help! This method is very simple and straightforward. I will stick to this.

Thank you for sharing - taking a deeper look at this. My data table in the question is only a minor part of the full data set and believe what you shared is specifically for the 4 rows of data. However I will look into this way and see if i can apply this. 

 

Thank you for your help!
