Hi,

I am using the below formula in several spreadsheets;

=CONCATENATE("F",(MATCH($A4,$E$1:$E$7985,0)))

Currently I have to look at the length of the array in column E in each
spreadsheet and input it into the formula.

Is there anyway of having the formula automatcally call the length of
the array to save me doing this?

Thanks in advance,
Steve

The complicated way:
=CONCATENATE("F",(MATCH($A4,OFFSET($E1,,,COUNTA(E: E)),0)))

The simple way:
=CONCATENATE("F",(MATCH($A4,$E:$E,0)))

Hi steev_jd,

If you give your array a name (eg MyArray), you could use:
=CONCATENATE("F",(MATCH($A4,MyArray,0)))
or, even simpler:
="F"&MATCH($A4,MyArray,0)

Cheers
