In this article, you will learn how to use the ROW formula in Excel. The ROW function simply returns the row number of a particular cell.
The "ROW" function in Excel is useful for returning the row number of a specified cell or range of cells. It can be used in various ways, some of which are:
The syntax for the ROW function in Excel is as follows:
Reference: is the cell for which you want to find the Row number
Note 1: The argument "reference" is optional, and it specifies the cell or range of cells for which you want to return the row number. If you don't specify a reference, Excel will assume that you want to return the row number for the cell in which the formula is located.
Note 2: If you enter an array as the “reference” parameter, the ROW function returns the row numbers of the array as a vertical array. So, make sure you have enough vertical spaces for the returned values.
Note 3: The “reference” argument can’t be multiple fields
