Hi all
In the Following Formula =HLOOKUP(Itininary!$L$4,'Date Details'!$C$3:$IV4,2,0) my understanding is if the date that is is in 'itininary'!$l$4 is to be searched for in the table array of 'Date Details'!$C$3:$IV4, which is in row 3. What I am not getting is that I what it to do is return the value that is in row 4, WHICH IT DOES, but what is the significance 0f the ,2, in this formula. IF I WANTED IT TO RETURN THE VALUE IN ROW 70 I HAVE TO MAKE THE TABLE ARRAY AND ROW INDEX 'Date Details'!$C$3:$IV70,68,0 and it does. again what is the significance of ,68, every day in every way i learn stew |

One way to help your philosophy of "every day in every way i learn" is to
look up the function concerned in Excel help. It'll tell you the syntax, give examples, and usually give "See also" links to related functions. -- David Biddulph "stew" wrote in message ...

Lars-Ã…ke So if C3:IV7 COVERS ROWS 3 TO 70 WHY DOES C3:IV4 ONLY COVER ROWS 3 AND 4, OR AM I MISUNDERSTANDING i GET THE ,2, AND ,68, WHICH WAS MY INITIAL QUESTION THANKS STEW |
