Default MATCH function (2003 - 2007)

Thanks! It works...

Excel 2003 also returns #N/A
with
=MATCH(A2, B2,0)
with B having the value A2:A25 (without quotes)

However
=MATCH(A2, INDIRECT(B2),0)
works

Pl. click ''''Yes'''' if this was helpful...

Why is it foruma #2 below returns "#N/A" in Excel 2007?

1. =MATCH(A2, A2:A25,0) [Excel 2007 returns the value of A2, assuming A2
contains one of the values found in A2:A25]

2. =MATCH (A2, B2, 0), where B2="A2:A25" [Excel 2007 returns "#N/A."]

PS. In Excel 2003, both formula returns the same correct A2 value.
