Get other value based on active cell-CodePudding

Google sheets / Google app's script

I'm want to know how to get a Cell, based in my current active Cell. Example:

A table where my active Cell is at G15, im wanna get the value of C15 (same row, but C column) and the value of C3 (same column now). To get the logic, imagines if my current Cell change to (example) H7, so, i would get C7 and H3.

I know It maybe is very simple, but im learning, so, im don't very very good ate that.

CodePudding user response：

Try to add into the cell G15 this formula:

=TEXTJOIN(", ", TRUE, $C15, G$3)

And then copy it from G15 to H7, etc.

You can also achieve this using Apps Script:

function returnVals() {
  let sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
  let activeCell = sheet.getActiveCell();
  let row = activeCell.getRow();
  let col = activeCell.getColumn();
  let colCValue = sheet.getRange(row,3).getValue();
  let sameCol = sheet.getRange(3,col).getValue();
  console.log(colCValue);
  console.log(sameCol);
}

The getActiveCell method will return the active cell from the sheet and the getRow and getColumn will get the row and the col of the active cell. Afterwards, based on the row and col retrieved, the function above will simply get the values you need by using the getRange and getValue methods.

So if the active cell is G17, the row will be 17 and the col will be 7; therefore:

colCValue will be the value corresponding to the (17,3) range which is C17;
sameCol will be the value corresponding to the (3, 7) range which is G3.
