..where the target cells are in one column on the report sheet, and the
data is in single rows of named ranges that may be multi column
depending on how many 'sections' there are for reporting a specific
category of data.

This, IMO, is the simpler solution that you suggest which works better
where VBA isn't desired!


yes, it works. But I don't like INDIRECT because it does not work with
closed workbooks and it is a volatile function.
