OFFSET and LOOKUP Error
 

I'm using Excel 2007

I'm using this formula in cell F11 to lookup a payment amount, which works
fine.
=HLOOKUP($I$3,Mortgage_Pay_Table,A11+2)

In Cell E11 I want to display the cell to the immediate left of the cell
being looked up in F11. I have tried this formula but get an error message:
=OFFSET(HLOOKUP($I$3,Mortgage_Pay_Table,A11+2),0,-1)

Suggestions?

OFFSET and LOOKUP Error
 

Try this...

=INDEX(Mortgage_Pay_Table,A11+2,MATCH($I$3,INDEX(M ortgage_Pay_Table,1,0),0)-1)

Something like this (untested):

=INDEX(Mortgage_Pay_Table,A11+2,MATCH($I$3,Mortgag e_Pay_Table,0)-1)
