That formula that I posted looks for an exact match. if you are not dealing
with exact matches then...

=INDEX(Formulas!$K$3:$K$6,MATCH(AM7,Formulas!$J$3: $J$6, -1))

I used -1 becuase the order is descending. From the Help on Match

If match_type is -1, MATCH finds the smallest value that is greater than or
equal to lookup_value. Lookup_array must be placed in descending order: TRUE,
FALSE, Z-A, ...2, 1, 0, -1, -2, ..., and so on.

Hi all-

anther sheet. =INDEX(Formulas!$J$3:$K$6,MATCH(AM7,Formulas!$J$3: $K$6)) The

cells on another page shown below. I keep getting the dreaded #n/a. I have
the text organized in cells
