If I have months across the top and balance sheet items down the side and I
want to reference lets say Cash (A4) for Aug (column 7) this month but switch
next Sep (column 8), I know that i can nest these two functions but it is not
working properly. Can anyone help?

Hi

Supposing your data is on Sheet1 and you have Months in B1:M1 and Items in
A2:A100.
On Sheet2 you have items in A2:A100 and you enter a Month in B1
the formula in B2 will be
=INDEX(Sheet1!A$1:$M$100,
MATCH($A2,Sheet!$A$1:$A$100,0),MATCH($B$1,Sheet1!$ B$1:$M$1,0))
Copy down column B as far as required
