Hi all -
I have two spreadsheets that index data from one spreadsheet into another.
Works fine, no problem... HOWEVER now it has become necessary that the data
in the source file has multiple lines entered in the one cell (using
Alt+Enter)being indexed. This means my formula in the destination file needs
to "see" each line in the source cell, along with all cells in the column
being indexed.

Example:
forumla in other spreadsheet: =INDEX('[spreadsheet
A.xls]Sheet1'!$A:$B,MATCH(N18,'[spreadsheet A.xls]Sheet1'!$A:$A,0),2)

A B
1 957 20
2 254 30
256
321
3 500 19

If N18 in spreadsheet B equals 256, I should get a result of 30.

Any ideas how I can get this formula to work with the Alt+Enter??
