I've just attached a better example as a reply to Pete above.

Thanks for the "4"! Works great!

Is "southbed" a one dimensional array?

How many rows is "southbed" ?

CZ613, rather than $CZ$613.


You can get rid of the dollar signs by using the 3rd argument of ADDRESS and
setting it to 4:

=ADDRESS(some_row,some_column,4)

Hi Mea,

I didn't quite understand it first time around (and here's the link to
your earlier post for anyone who's wondering:

http://groups.google.com/group/micro...d3011ba5fb6?q=

), and I'm still not sure now.

Do you think you could sketch out what you data looks like with a few
examples, so that I can visualise it a bit better?

Why do you need the cell addresses anyway?

determine if the "name" if there, and how many occurences there are
(Thanks
Pete_UK), but I need to show the cell address for EACH occurence and
that's
where it goes west.

I came across a post from Ron that gave me this formula to return a cell
address.
I am using a range, and want something in the field only if there is an
occurence, so I have used this.
=IFERROR(ADDRESS(SUMPRODUCT(('working with
files\southbed=$B4)*ROW('working
with files\southbed)),SUMPRODUCT(('working with
files\southbed=$B4)*COLUMN('working with files\southbed)))," ")

However, this only works when there is one location. For multiple
locations,
I get one result and it's way off. How can I show cell address for all
occurences?

I'd also like the cell address to show as CZ613, rather than $CZ$613. Any
way to do this?

Thanks,
Mea
