Problem with Code Below
I copied it from your email and added the extra periods I suggest in the
previous post and it worked fine for me:
Set rng = .Range(.Cells(1, 1), .Cells(1, 256).End(xlToLeft))
has 3 periods added - you left two out.
Function Look_Up_Accross(ByVal What_I_Want)
Dim sStr As String, rng As Range
With Worksheets(1)
Set rng = .Range(.Cells(1, 1), .Cells(1, 256).End(xlToLeft))
End With
res = Application.Match(What_I_Want, rng, 0)
If Not IsError(res) Then
MsgBox "column: " & res
Else
MsgBox "Not found"
End If
Look_Up_Accross = res
End Function

When I debug it, its giving me an error right at the "Set rng=..." the
same
one as before. I modified my code to read as such
Function Look_Up_Accross(ByVal What_I_Want)
Dim sStr As String, rng As Range
With Worksheets(1)
Set rng = .Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(1, 256).End(xlToLeft))
End With
res = Application.Match(What_I_Want, rng, 0)
If Not IsError(res) Then
MsgBox "column: " & res
Else
MsgBox "Not found"
End If
Look_Up_Accross = res
End Function
Thanks

possibly you need to qualify the range elements - perhaps you have a
different sheet active this week than last.
Function Look_Up_Accross(ByVal What_I_Want)
Dim sStr As String, rng As Range
With Worksheets("Sheet3")
Set rng = .Range(.Cells(1, 1), .Cells(1, 256).End(xlToLeft))
End with
res = Application.Match(What_I_Want, rng, 0)
If Not IsError(res) Then
MsgBox "column: " & res
Else
MsgBox "Not found"
End If
Look_Up_Accross = res
End Function
Change to reflect the sheet that contains the lookup table.

Hi all
Can someone please explain why this isn't working? It is called
from a
different Sub marco with What_I_Want being a text string I need to
match. It
should return the value of hte column as well
Function Look_Up_Accross(ByVal What_I_Want)
Dim sStr As String, rng As Range
Set rng = Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(1, 256).End(xlToLeft))
res = Application.Match(What_I_Want, rng, 0)
If Not IsError(res) Then
MsgBox "column: " & res
Else
MsgBox "Not found"
End If
Look_Up_Accross = res
End Function
Thanks, Ben H.
