Thumbs up Answer: Determining the Cell Address of a VLOOKUP Result in VBA

To determine the cell address of a VLOOKUP result in VBA, you can use the MATCH function in combination with the VLOOKUP function.

Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates how to do this:

Formula:
Dim lookupValue As Variant
Dim lookupRange 
As Range
Dim matchResult 
As Variant
Dim vlookupResult 
As Variant
Dim resultCell 
As Range

' Set the lookup value and range
lookupValue = "some value"
Set lookupRange = Range("A1:A10")

Use the MATCH function to find the row number of the lookup value
matchResult 
Application.Match(lookupValuelookupRange0)

' Use the VLOOKUP function to get the result value
vlookupResult = Application.VLookup(lookupValue, lookupRange, 1, False)

Use the Cells property to get a reference to the result cell
Set resultCell 
Cells(matchResultlookupRange.Column)

' Print the cell address and result value
Debug.Print "Result cell address: " & resultCell.Address
Debug.Print "Result value: " & vlookupResult 
In this example, we first set the lookup value and range. We then use the MATCH function to find the row number of the lookup value in the range. We pass the row number and column number of the lookup range to the Cells property to get a reference to the result cell. Finally, we print the cell address and result value for verification.
  1. Set the lookup value and range
  2. Use the MATCH function to find the row number of the lookup value
  3. Use the VLOOKUP function to get the result value
  4. Use the Cells property to get a reference to the result cell
  5. Print the cell address and result value
