Picking out column in named range
Hi,
I remember that a fancy and tidy solution to my problem exists - but I've forgotten it. Can you help please? All my named ranges here utilise offset formulas: they can change shape, size and they can move. I have a named range spanning multiple columns and rows. Now I want to run a match formula on the 5th column of this named range. Rather than creating a new named range, how can I tidily reference the 5th column of my existing named range? Also, I have another named range just covering 1 row. How, by referencing this named range, can I pick out the value in the 7th column? Thanks ever so much... I'll go and see if I can return a favour to somebody else here =o) Basil |

Picking out column in named range
Got it.
=INDEX(NAMED_RANGE,,5) Where 5 is the column number desired. Sorry to have troubled you. B "Basil" wrote: Hi, I remember that a fancy and tidy solution to my problem exists - but I've forgotten it.
