HLOOKUP: specify table array in a cell
I am looking to specify the range of cells for the table_array in a cell.
For example: =HLOOKUP("ABC", A1, 5, 0) where A1 would contain the info on my range of cells in a different notebook. How would I do this? Thanks |

HLOOKUP: specify table array in a cell
where A1 would contain the info on my
range of cells in a different notebook. What do you mean by: in a different notebook? You can try it like this but if a different notebook means a different workbook (file) then that workbook (file) must be open for this to work. =HLOOKUP("ABC",INDIRECT(A1),5,0) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Melanie" wrote in message ...
