I know I can easily refer to a table column by name, as in Table1[column name]

But is there a way to refer to a table column by it's position? For example, refer to the first column, third column, etc. without using the column name?

Hoping there is some way to do this using structured references.
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
Try using INDEX

=INDEX(Table,0,3)

That will be the 3rd column of the table.
