Excel find the content of cell using row and column header
Let say I have a matrix with month as header row (2005-10, 2005-11, etc... )
and sales person as column header (Smith, Jack etc...). the value of the matrix is sales amount : 2005-10 2005-11 Smith 500 300 Jack 25 33 can I create a formula that finds the intersection of a row and a column. for ex. find 33 with is : intersection of Jack and 2005-11. thx |

Excel find the content of cell using row and column header
If you select the entire range, including the date and name headers and use
Insert-Names-Create, Excel will fabricate range names for each column and each row. The first row of data will be named "Smith" & the second row "Jack." The dates will handled a little differently. Excel will add an underscore to the front and change the hyphen to another underscore. Once that is done, you can get Smith's sales for 2005-11 with the formula =_2005_11 Smith NOTE THE SPACE BETWEEN THE 2 NAMES!!! Jack's sales for the prior month can be gotten by =Jack _2005_10 Again there's a space between the two range names.
