Thanks again Bob

I thought it was that and had changed to your first suggestion, but that
produced a #Value in another cell that has the following formula (it
returned the correct value when I left the Range Name for Consol.SalesDate
at =OFFSET(Consol!$B$1,1,0,COUNTA(Consol!$B:$B),1)


=SUMPRODUCT(--(Consol.SalesDate=D$1)*(Consol.Restaurants=1234),( (Consol.Pay1
+Consol.Pay2+Consol.Pay3+Consol.Pay4+Consol.Pay6)) )

As far as I can determine, its because Consol.Pay1 = 0, but not sure why

it
returns a #value as Zero is the correct value in Consol.Pay1 (I eliminated
from the formula Consol.Pay1 and I get the correct answer expected)

Your second suggest does work for me Bob

Thanks

John,

The reason is that your range names are all defined to start at row 2

(you
offset the row on Consol.SalesDate by 1 from B1, thereby starting at 2).
However. by using the row multiplier in SP, you use the actual row

number,
not that number offset within the defined name range. So row 3 is the

2nd
row in the defined name range, and when you use that value to index in,
you
go one row too many.

Either adjust Consol.SalesDat to

=OFFSET(Consol!$B$1,0,0,COUNTA(Consol!$B:$B),1)

or use


=IF(SUMPRODUCT(--(Consol.SalesDate=E$2)*(Consol.Restaurants=1234)*( ROW(Conso

l.Comments)-1))=0,"",INDEX(Consol.Comments,SUMPRODUCT(--(Consol.SalesDate=E$
2)*(Consol.Restaurants=1234)*(ROW(Consol.Comments)-1))))

I have the following formula which returns the value +1 Row from the

cell
I'm expecting the value to be Returned from



=IF(SUMPRODUCT(--(Consol.SalesDate=E$2)*(Consol.Restaurants=1234)*R OW(Consol

..Comments))=0,"",INDEX(Consol.Comments,SUMPRODUCT (--(Consol.SalesDate=E$2)*(
Consol.Restaurants=1234)*ROW(Consol.Comments))))

The "Consol.Comment" I'm expecting to be returned is what resides in

Cell
J2, however it returns what is in J3 and from what I can see, it is
always
out +1 Row for all my expected cells

All my range names are dynamic and feed off "Consol.SalesDate" which is
ranged as below

=OFFSET(Consol!$B$1,1,0,COUNTA(Consol!$B:$B),1). As an example the

Range
name setting for "Consol.Comments" is =OFFSET(Consol.SalesDate,0,8)

Note all my data starts in Row2, I've Headers in Row1

Am I doing something wrong?


Thanks
