Hi all,

In the below example (actual table is much larger) I want to pull the column number of 3500 at 3E. With match function I have pulled the row number i.e. 5 but I am unable to extract the column number of 3500.

Thanks, but result of this formula comes to 3500. Actually 3E and 3500 are the input values by the user. I need to know the row number of 3E which is 5 and the position of 3500 i.e., column No.
