Default Simplify Vlookup function in Excel

When using Vlookup, the function asks for a table array. I'd like to suggest
a change to the function. Provide a one column range, then allow the function
to find it ## rows over. For example,

instead of: =Vlookup(A1,C:G,5,false)
simply: =Vlookup(A1,C:C,5,false)

This may seem minor, but when you're doing a lot of reference work in one
spreadsheet, the current function requirements are fairly time consuming.
