Default How to get the cell reference of the value selected from name list

P.S.

In other words, I'm assuming you want the *specific* cell address that
matches the selection from the drop down list.

There are several ways to do this. This one works no matter where your
named range Workdays is located.

Array entered** :

=ADDRESS(MAX((Workdays=A1)*ROW(Workdays)),COLUMN(W orkdays),4)

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER). Hold down both the CTRL key and the
SHIFT key then hit ENTER.
