I'm trying to script an equivalent to Excel 3D formula into Google sheets.I have a workbook with numerous worksheets and a master sheet that should sum up the data.
In excel I would have used this 3D formula :
=SUM(Sheet1:Sheet4!A2)Working with Google Sheets for just a couple of months, I have some difficulties going through this.
I tried the following found here on stackExchange:
function sum3D(reference, start, end){ var sheets = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpredsheet().getSheets(); var sum = 0; for(var i = start; i <= end; i++){ sum += sheets[i].getRange(reference).getValue(); } return sum;}But this would sum the sheets only defined by their index and would not include future sheets inserted as would Excel do.
So I would like to change this script using only optional argument fromIndex: to sum all values across all sheets from the chosen sheet in my workbook, as ordered by tab position.
That way, I would insert my new sheets after the from Index and would be automatically added to my sum.
Here is what I came with but it's not working and literally driving me mad...
function sum3D(rangeReferenceString,fromIndex){var sheets = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheets();var sum = 0;for(var i = fromIndex){ sum += sheets[i].getRange(reference).getValue(); } return sum;}Would you be so kind to help me find my way through this ?
