Hi All.......

I am trying to Concatenate a RangeName being used in an INDEX formula.
J1=DEFECTS, D5=30220

=INDEX(J1&D5,3,4) don't seem to work.

If I type in =INDEX(DEFECTS30220,3,4) it works fine....

I would like to pull the RangeName out of the formula hard coding if
possible.

Any help would be appreciated.

Vaya con Dios,
Chuck, CABGx3
