Try the below formula in cell F5 and copy down:

MATCH(D$1,Citrus!$A$1:$G$1,0))

Any thoughts based on my original formula where my logic is off?


I believe I answered that already. As I noted, you have a typo in the
ISERROR expression.

When I fix that, your original formula seems to work the same as Spencer's
rewrite without the loss of functionality (error detection).

Granted, you do not seem to need the error detection, at least with the
example Excel file. And granted, Spencer's rewrite simplifies your original
formula in ways that are consistent with the example Excel file.

But we cannot know if the example Excel file is representative of your total
and future needs. Only you can make that determination.
