Numeric reference of column. Data Grab ?
I have one column A with sites names and next 33 columns with site categories In each line i put an "x" mark at the proper column(category) that the site belongs I want to put a column in the column beside site's name and receive the description of each category The description of each category is the heading of each column ( row 1 ) vlookup or hlookup didn't work. I used match MATCH("x";B2:AH2;FALSE) and i got the column where the x is located in numeric format Can you suggest a solution to this ?

Try: =INDEX($B$1:$AH$1,MATCH("x",B2:AH2,0)) HTH JG -- pinmaster ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pinmaster's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=6261 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=498080 |

Hi I think this will work =INDEX($C$1:$AH$1,,MATCH("x",C2:AH2,FALSE)) But it looks like PinMaster beat me to it Regards Shaun -- ShaunM ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ShaunM's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=18610 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=498080 |
