Default Copying VLOOKUP

I'm working on a two worksheets.
The formula is as follows:

=VLOOKUP($A92;'[Q306 MME Pricing Aug 06 CUSTOMER COPY v5 (2).xls]PRICE
LIST'!$A:BE;57;0)

I want to copy the formula to one cell on the right and turns as follows:

=VLOOKUP($A92;'[Q306 MME Pricing Aug 06 CUSTOMER COPY v5 (2).xls]PRICE
LIST'!$A:BF;57;0)

My problem is that the coll index number does not change...

that means I have to change it manually for 50 collumns.

PLEASE HELP

Default Copying VLOOKUP

=VLOOKUP($A92;
'[Q306 MME Pricing Aug 06 CUSTOMER COPY v5 (2).xls]PRICE LIST'!$A:BE;
column('[Q306 MME Pricing Aug 06 CUSTOMER COPY v5 (2).xls]PRICE LIST'!be:be);
0)

this will react to insertion/deletion of columns in that price list worksheet.

But you may want to consider using =index(match()).

=index('[Q306 MME Pricing Aug 06 CUSTOMER COPY v5 (2).xls]PRICE LIST'!BE:BE;
match($a92;
'[Q306 MME Pricing Aug 06 CUSTOMER COPY v5 (2).xls]PRICE LIST'!$a:$a;0)

Debra Dalgleish has some notes:
http://www.contextures.com/xlFunctions03.html (for =index(match()))

ps. watch out for typos. I use commas for my list separator. I tried to
change them to semicolons, but may have missed some.

Default Copying VLOOKUP

sorry Dave,

but it doesn't work either of the two ways.

In the first one, does not bring to the cell the right data.

Default Copying VLOOKUP

When you look at the new formula (after copy|pasting), didn't that BE:BE change
to BF:BF?

In both formulas?????

Maybe you have calculation set to manual?

Ιt turns to BF:BF but it does not bring in the right data. Instead of the
content of the specific cells, it brings in the "lookup value".

Weird ha?
