Default LOOKUP Problems

James,

Can you not embed another INDIRECT (using text not ADDRESS)?

Try;

=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(MATCH(R[-5]C,INDIRECT("C"&(MATCH(R[-4]C,R[-11]C[-9]:R[-11]C[-3],0)+3)),0),3),1)

Regards,

Chris.

Good morning.

I am trying to nest together some references and I can not get it to work out.

The formula below works fine:
=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(MATCH(R[-5]C,C9,0),3),1)

The problem is that I need the C9 to be dymanic. I have the following
formula:
=MATCH(R[-4]C,R[-11]C[-9]:R[-11]C[-3],0)+3

That will give me the 9 for the C9, but I do not know the sysntax to replace
the C9 in the original formula.
The first formula is in cell M16 and the second is in cell M14..if it is
relevant.

Thanks
