I have a formula that is using the INDEX and MATCH fuction. In that
formula,
the cell in column D returns the Salesmens name that matches the Customer
in
column B of that same row. There are about 300 rows of "rolling" entries
as
they are deleted once they ship. The formula works unless I change the row
sort. Normaly it is sorted by start date, but if I change it to ship date,
it
keeps the original cell address even thou Im not using an absolute
referance.
Example: If row 1 reads-

43942 "customer name" 4/24/08 "Salesmen" 5/30/08

and the formula referances ($B2) and it works, but I change the sort and
now
this row item is in row 10, it still references ($B2). WHY????? None of
the
other formulas in the shreadsheet do this. They all update when I change
the
sort.
