Friends,

I have a spreadsheet similar to the following:

A B C
1 Symbol Quant PnL
2 DELL 50
3 INTC 100
4 AMD 200

I have a named Range "Symbol" for cells A2..A4.

I want to select cells C2..C4 using the fact that they are in the column
with the heading of "PnL" and that they correspond to the Range "Symbol".

In other words, I want the code to say, "Select the cells that correspond to
the Range "Symbol" but are in the column with the heading "PnL".

Thanks,
Alan

Assuming your headings are in row 1 then try:

Dim fndCell As Range
With Rows(1)
Set fndCell = .Find("Pnl")
If Not fndCell Is Nothing Then
Range("Symbol").Offset(0, fndCell.Column - _
Range("Symbol").Column).Select
End If
End With

Hope this helps
Rowan

Range("Symbol").Offset(,
WorksheetFunction.Match("PnL",Range("A1:Z1"),0)-1).Select
