Think its optional ..
From Excel's Help INDEX(array,row_num,column_num) If array contains only one row or column, the corresponding row_num or column_num argument is optional. In H2: =INDEX(A$1:F$1,,MATCH(G2,A2:F2,0)) would have worked just as well -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:20,000 Files:362 Subscribers:62 xdemechanik --- "FARAZ QURESHI" wrote in message ... Max! U r the best no doubt! However, can you explain how does this formula work? The part MATCH(G2,A2:F2,0) has been inserted in the Row_Num, instead of Col_Num? The formula as per the F1 help should have been =INDEX(A$1:F$1,1,MATCH(G2,A2:F2,0))? Don't you think so? |
