Index using a defined name array
I have defined 3 arrays using DefineNames: Boys_11_12 Boys_13_14 Boys_15_16 I then have defined a Combo dropdown with the following choices: Boys_11_12 Boys_13_14 Boys_15_16 When the user selects the Boys age group using the Combo dropdown, I then use the selection in an Index function: Index(Boys_(one of the three),...) I get an error when using the Combo dropdown, but it works fine when I type in the array name directly into the Index function. Its as if it knows the array when typed in, but not using the Combo dropdown. I created the Combo dropdown by typing in the array names into cells as text, then using properties select where the dorpdown text is. -- Swimmer1500m |
