How do you do this?
Think about using the MATCH function to find the column number

Hi all,
I'm using Excel 2007 and is thinging about what is the best pratice. The
issue is: "Finding the column number of a column and allowing the user to
add new columns"
Have a table in sheet1 - named tblProducts
This table have several columns ie. ID and Description
Normaly I have named the table headings like "fldProdId" and "fldProdDesc"
and created a Public Const gsRNG_PROD_ID As String = "fldProdID" and then
used the range property to find the Column no of the named range...
But now I found that I can use "tblProducts[[#Headers],[Id]]" and it will
work even when users insert new columns, BUUUT when the user changes the
Heading "Id" to "Id no" than I got problems.
How do you handle this situation best, most flexible and secure?
Can this "tblProducts[[#Headers],[Id]]" be used in any way or is the
naming of ranges and constants the proper way?
Questions - please ask.
Cheers,
Flemming
