Okay, I'll try & make this as simple as I can.
I have two worksheet tabs. 1. Named: Sheet2 & 2. Named: 2524-Pivot
In Sheet2 I have the following layout:
A B C D
E
MM/YY MM/YY
MM/YY
_Code__________Reported_Device_______Jan-06_________Feb-06_________Mar-06_
2524 Failure to Advance
Okay, so under let's say C3 I am trying to write a Vlookup formula. A
normal one would be =VLOOKUP(C2,'2524-Pivot'!$A$3:$J$24,10,FALSE) as
Worksheet Tab 2524-Pivot is where the data is I want it to look up
according to the MM/YY.
It works great; however, I am going to be creating a crazy amount of
these Pivot-table worksheets and each one will be named *-code-*-Pivot
So I wanted to know if anyone knew if it was possible to do a Vlookup
that would automatically grab the A column (Code) and then just put the
-Pivot part of the table_array name.
I tried the following (which didn't work:
=vlookup(c2,'a3&-Pivot'!$a$3:$j$24,10,false) and some similar.
anyone out there can help, it would be greatly appreciated. if it's
possible all I would have to do would be to copy and paste these in
this huge spreadsheet with many mm/yy fields.
Please help.
Thanks,
David
