Insert quotes around a lookup value
Greetings,
I have created a table inside a spreadsheet I've designed but am having a hard time retreiving the information. I know what the problem is, howeverm I'm stumped on how to resolve it. My table looks a little like this: 2003 | 2004 | 2005 | ------------------------------ 1 1643 | 1674 | 1713 | ------------------------------ 2 2049 | 2093 | 2141 | etc... Okay, I'm using YEAR() functon to determine the year based on other information used on the sheet. =HLOOKUP(YEAR(D4),A58:L64,N42+1) is the formula I'm trying to get working. If instead of using YEAR(D4) I use "2005" (with the quotes of course) everything works fine. What I'm trying to say is how do I get excel to put quotes around the result of YEAR(D4)? I'm sure there's a very simple solution to this problem... at least I hope there is. |
Insert quotes around a lookup value
A couple of other ways...
=hlookup(year(d4)&"", ... =hlookup(text(year(d4),"0000"), ... or =hlookup(text(d4,"yyyy"),....
