Default retreiving cell address of vlookup value


Anyone know what the easiest way is to get the cell address of the
result of a vlookup function?

Example:

Col A Col B
Row 1 CA ???

Row 10 AZ Arizona
Row 11 CA California
Row 12 IL Illinois

vlookup(A1, A10:B12, 2, false) = California

= I want the cell address of "California" to appear in B1

Try...

=CELL("address",INDEX(B10:B12,MATCH(A1,A10:A12,0)) )

or

=CELL("address",INDEX(A10:B12,MATCH(A1,A10:A12,0), 2))

Hope this helps!
