Default Please Help: Adding an equation to a range


Is it possible to add an equation to a range of data? For example, I am
using the MATCH function to return the row number of a last value in a
specific column.

=MATCH(LOOKUP(9.9999999999E+100,'Data'!E:E),'Data' !E:E,0)

I would like to use this row number to establish a named range that
will adjust as a given set of data changes. For example, if the formula
returned 100, I need the named range to be A1 to K100.

Any different methods or suggestions?

Let's say you want to sum A1:K100 and the cell that returns 100 is L2,
you can try:

SUM(A1:INDIRECT("K"&L2))

Hope it helps.
