TOROW function

The TOROW function in Jspreadsheet Formulas Pro transforms an array or range into a single-row array. It takes data from multiple rows/columns and rearranges them into a single horizontal line.

Documentation

Convert a range or array into a single-row array with options to ignore empty cells and choose row or column scanning.

Syntax

TOROW(array, [ignore], [scan_by_column])

Parameter	Description
`array`	The array you want to transform into a single row.
`[ignore]`	Optional boolean (TRUE/FALSE). If TRUE, empty cells are skipped. Default is FALSE.
`[scan_by_column]`	Optional boolean. If TRUE, scans by column first; if FALSE, scans by row first. Default is TRUE.

Behavior

The TOROW function flattens a range or array into a single horizontal row. It reorganizes values according to the specified parameters.

Empty cells: Included in the result by default, unless [ignore] = TRUE, in which case they are skipped.
Text: Preserved in the output row as-is.
Numbers: Returned unchanged in the output row.
Booleans: Interpreted as numbers (TRUE = 1, FALSE = 0).
Errors: Any errors within the source range are carried over into the resulting row.

Common Errors

Error Name	Description
#VALUE!	This error occurs when the function encounters an incompatible data type in the range or array.
#N/A	This error occurs when the function cannot find the range or array specified.

Best practices

Always ensure that your range or array does not contain any error values, as these will be carried into the output row.

Use absolute cell references in your function to prevent errors if rows or columns are added or deleted.

Always double-check your range or array to ensure it contains the cells you want to convert into a row.

Keep in mind that your function will return all values in the range or array, including empty cells, so clean up your data if necessary before using the function.

Usage

A few examples using the TOROW function.

TOROW(A1:C3)  
→ Returns all values from range A1:C3 in a single row.  

TOROW(A1:C3, TRUE)  
→ Returns all values from A1:C3 in a single row, skipping empty cells.  

TOROW(A1:C3, FALSE, FALSE)  
→ Returns all values from A1:C3 in a single row, scanning row by row instead of column by column.  

TOROW({1,2,3;4,5,6})  
→ Returns {1,2,3,4,5,6} as a single horizontal row.
