I wish to use the MATCH function to copy down to find subsequent
matches of my look-up value, NOT ONLY the first match. For example, I am searching for €˜Sydney as my look-up value. In cell B5, I have "Sydney" In cell C5, i have =MATCH($B$5&"*",A1:A1291,0) (which finds me my first sydney) In cell D5, I have =HYPERLINK("#A"&C5,"GO TO") AT THIS POINT, I CAN USE THE HYPERLINK TO GO TO THE 1st MATCH OF €˜Sydney. Cell C5 returned 683€¦therefore, my hyperlink took me to cell A683 to locate my 1st €˜Sydney. But€¦HOW CAN I FURTHER SEARCH FOR THE OTHER €˜Sydneys which are farther down the page????? Thanks, FLKulchar |
