The logic will be

=INDEX(PIVOTTABLE,MATCH(Company,PTColumn,False),MA TCH(Date,PTHeader,False))
=INDEX(PIVOTTABLE,MATCH(Company,PTColumn,False),MA TCH(Date,PTHeader,False)+1)
=INDEX(PIVOTTABLE,MATCH(Company,PTColumn,False),MA TCH(Date,PTHeader,False)+2)
=INDEX(PIVOTTABLE,MATCH(Company,PTColumn,False),MA TCH(Date,PTHeader,False)+3)
=INDEX(PIVOTTABLE,MATCH(Company,PTColumn,False),MA TCH(Date,PTHeader,False)-1)
=INDEX(PIVOTTABLE,MATCH(Company,PTColumn,False),MA TCH(Date,PTHeader,False)-2)
=INDEX(PIVOTTABLE,MATCH(Company,PTColumn,False),MA TCH(Date,PTHeader,False)-3)

The specifics depend on the format of the PT headers.

Hi

I am looking for a way to lookup a particular cell within a pivot
table

the pivot table contains 8000 account numbers down the left hand side
and the Months accross the top and sales in the grid.

Am am wanting to put the account number and Month into a cell and pull
through the sales for that month i am also looking to then show the
previous and next 3 months sales in the previous and next 3 cells on
the same row, Smaple of what i want below but i cant find the right
formula.

Other problem is that the pivot table is built of a server and the
account numbers are not sequential

Any Ideas


Month
Aug-05

Account No -3 -2 -1 Aug-05 +1 +2 +3
13758
12547
