Row position of specified column and value
I still don't understand why match won't get what you want??
=MATCH(6,F:F)
or if 2 (col B) in e1 and 6 in e2 and range sorted. Others better but..
=MATCH(E2,INDIRECT(""&LEFT(ADDRESS(1,E1,4),FIND(1, ADDRESS(1,E1,4))-1)&":"&LEFT(ADDRESS(1,E1,4),FIND(1,ADDRESS(1,E1,4) )-1)&""))

The Match function requires you to specify a range. I am only wanting to
specify the column number.

I would like to know the row position of a specified column and value in
a
table. If multiple occurences of the specified value occur in a
particular
column, I want the bottom most row position returned. For example, in
the
folowing table, the function would specify column 2 (or B), value of 6,
and
return 3 since the bottom most 6 in column 2 is row 3.
A B C
1 5 8
2 6 9
3 6 10
4 7 11
