Need help with function using INDEX and MATCH.
I have a formula that is using the INDEX and MATCH fuction. In that formula,
the cell in column D returns the Salesmens name that matches the Customer in column B of that same row. There are about 300 rows of "rolling" entries as they are deleted once they ship. The formula works unless I change the row sort. Normaly it is sorted by start date, but if I change it to ship date, it keeps the original cell address even thou Im not using an absolute referance. Example: If row 1 reads- 43942 "customer name" 4/24/08 "Salesmen" 5/30/08 and the formula referances ($B2) and it works, but I change the sort and now this row item is in row 10, it still references ($B2). WHY????? None of the other formulas in the shreadsheet do this. They all update when I change the sort. |

'Sean.rogers[_2_ Wrote: ;2738845']I have a formula that is using the INDEX and MATCH fuction. In that formula, , but I change the sort and now this row item is in row 10, it still references ($B2). WHY????? None of the other formulas in the shreadsheet do this. They all update when I change the sort. The sort must include the formula column. Otherwise it has no reason to change the reference. -- mmusterd |
