Hi All,

I am currently having real problem using the formula below:

=INDEX(Data!C:C,MATCH(B7,Data!A:A))

What i am trying to do with this formula is return the cell address of an item that is in a different sheet.

The reference the for search is in Cell B7 which is a date, it then looks at a different sheet "Data" for this date which is in Column A. It then returns the Cell Reference of Column C of the same row.

Currently it is just returning the value of column C and not the cell reference.

Any Help greatly appreciated as i have scoured the Forum for answers.

Kind Regards
Rob Ulyatt

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
Hi Rob,

Not sure why you need the cell address, but perhaps try something like this instead:

="C" & MATCH(B7, Data!A:A)

Thank you for that circledchicken works perfectly.

I needed the cell address so that one of my VBA forms could reference it.

Thank You Once Again..!

Kind Regards
