I would like to find one simple function that will do the following.
When you select an Item from a drop down list that a function output a number indicating the selected items position in the list.
For example let's say you have a drop down list with BC,Alt,CC,Ont in it. And the user selects "CC" that the function would give a result of "3"
So if you had a drop down in A1 the function would be Function(A1)=3
I already have methods to do this that involve functions involving lookup tables ... arrays etc! So what I'm looking for is a simple built-in function to replace the complex method ... Thanks.
