How to increment a cell reference in a row

I have a row of cells. The first cell in the row is ='05.09'!M7. I need the
second cell in the same row to be incremented by 7 ex: ='05.09'!M14 and the
following cells in the same row to be incremented by 7 continously. It would
look like this cell one ='05.09'!M7 cell two ='05.09'!M14 cell three
='05.09'!M21 cell four ='05.09'!M28.

How can I add 7 to the first cell and drag over the remaining cells in the
row.

The data from ='05.09'!M7 is in a different worksheet and in columns not rows.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
 
In row 1 enter the below formula and copy that down..It picks the row number
and multiply by 7

=INDIRECT("05.09!M" & ROW()*7)

Jacob,

Suitably modified it doesn't have to go in row 1

=INDIRECT("05.09!M" & (ROW(A1)-1)*7+7)

Sorry, I might have not explained myself very well so here is an example of
what I am trying to do.

Cell 1 needs to pull from 05.09'!M7 to get the value 22. Then I would like
to put into Cell 2, Cell 3 and Cell 4 a formula to increment 05.09'!M7 by 7
so I can avoid so much keying. Consequently, I am pulling from columns and
placing the data into rows.

I tried the =INDIRECT("05.09!M" & ROW()*7) but it did not work. Also tried
Column inplace if row.

Worksheet Reptg Data in Rows
Cell 1 Cell 2 Cell 3
Cell 4
=05.09'!M7 22 =05.09'!M14 33 =05.09'!M21 44 =05.09'!M28 55

Worksheet 05.09 in columns
05.09'!M7 value is 22
05.09'!M14 value is 33
05.09'!M21 value is 44
05.09'!M28 value is 55

Jacob's formula does exactly that but you must put it in row 1. My formula
can be put in any row and when dragged down gives the reult you want

Thanks,

The =INDIRECT("05.09!M" & (ROW(A1)-1)*7+7) worked great. I did need to
change the (ROW to (COLUMN. After that it worked great.

Much thanks, this will save me time and increase the accuracy of the report.
