the following formula [FONT=Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]=(INDEX(MATCH(C105,C100:C160,0),MATCH("week 2",C99:AH160,0))) give a #n/a error Should find 146.83 value
This formula [FONT=Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]=INDEX(C100:AH160,6,3) gives the correct answer of 146.83
the week 2 column is from another column and pasted special as values.

What have I done wrong.
Pretty new at this.

Excel Facts

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
=INDEX(MATCH(C105,C100:C160,0),MATCH("week 2",C99:AH160,0))) misses the range in which you want to look for (normally =INDEX(C1000:AH160,MATCH...,MATCH...)), and in this formula there is a space between "week" and "2". There seems to be no space in the column header in your sample table

HI there,
I think I have got it.
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]=INDEX(C100:AH160,MATCH(C100,C100:C160,0),MATCH(E99,C99:AH99,0))
NOw another question.
When I have entered the data for week3 is there a way to copy the column from d13:d57 to f100:f141 automatically?
Again thanks for the help
