AutoFill
Hi, How do I autofill a formula that should take the data from e.g. colum A:B, C:D, E:F, etc? I tried to fix the column ($A:$B, $C:$D, $E:$F) but the pattern was not recognized, instead it gave me ...

You can probably use the INDEX function, but I'd need more info about the formula you want to create and where the formula will be entered.

HansVogelaar many thanks. This is a vlookup formula in sheet2 while this sheet has the date in column A, the stock1 in column B where I want to match the value to the date. Sheet1 contains the raw data. In column A of sheet 1 is the date, B the stock1 with the respective values, then C contains again the date, D the values for the stock2 etc. Now when I enter the vlookup formula in sheet2 cell b2 vlookup($a2;sheet2!a:b;2;false) and use autofill, it searches for sheet2!b:c and not c:d.

In B22:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP($A22;OFFSET(Data!$A:$B;0;2*COLUMN()-4);2;FALSE);"")
Fill to the right (and down)
