I am attempting to create a worksheet formula as follows:

Cell A3 is to reflect the PRODUCT of Cells A1:A3 on Worksheet2.
Cell A4 is to reflect the PRODUCT of Cells A4:A6 on Worksheet2.
Cell A5 is to reflect the PRODUCT of Cells A7:A9 on Worksheet2, and so on.

Unfortunately, when I copy the formula from Cell A3 to A4, I'm not using the
OFFSET function properly. Any suggestions?

Try this

=SUM(OFFSET(Sheet2!A1,(ROW(1:1)-1)*3,,3))

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your assistance. By changing "SUM" to "PRODUCT", the formula is
doing exactly as requested.

Thanks.

a) I am looking to

Here is another variation

=PRODUCT(OFFSET(A$1,ROW(A1)*3-3,,3))
