I am quite familiar with the vlookup function. But, I am stmped in a
situation where what I am looking for is not the result of the vlookup,
but rather the absolute ROW in the sheet in which the result falls.

For example, say that the result of my vlookuip is a value that lies in
cell 26B.

How do I return the result "26"?

Similarly, what If I wanted to know the Column. How would I return the
result "B"?

thx
Mark
