Help me interpret this formula:
=OFFSET(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(INDEX(F24:F27,MATCH(I 5,F24:F27,0))),COLUMN(INDEX(F24:F27,MATCH(I5,F24:F 27,0))))),, 1) As far as I can tell, this returns the value one cell to the right of the cell address returned from the ADDRESS(ROW(INDEX(F24:F27,MATCH(I5,F24:F27,0))),CO LUMN(INDEX(F24:F27,MATCH(I5,F24:F27,0)))) part. Correct? Is there a more concise way of doing the same thing? Thanks. |

maybe
=indirect("R"&match(I5,F24:F27,0)&"C6",0) the row(index())will just be 23 plus the match function the column Index F...) will always give a 6 so to go over one just make the column be 7 to go one to the right.

I'm at a loss as to how it does anything more than this except that it does
it in a roundabout manner: =VLOOKUP(I5, F24:G27, 2) Greg "Dave F" wrote: Help me interpret this formula: =OFFSET(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(INDEX(F24:F27,MATCH(I 5,F24:F27,0))),COLUMN(INDEX(F24:F27,MATCH(I5,F24:F 27,0))))),, 1) As far as I can tell, this returns the value one cell to the right of the cell address returned from the ADDRESS(ROW(INDEX(F24:F27,MATCH(I5,F24:F27,0))),CO LUMN(INDEX(F24:F27,MATCH(I5,F24:F27,0)))) part.

I agree, but I think the OP wants an exact match
