Index Match Problem
I'm using the following formula, but it's returning #N/A:
=INDEX('File X'!$F$1:$F$2000,MATCH(1,($B5='File X'!$A$1:$A$2000)*(S$4='File X'!$G$1:$G$2000),0) However, if I replace the S$4 with "7710", it returns the correct value. The number in S4 is 7710. Why won't the formula recognize the cell reference, but if I type the contents of the cell manually, it works? I double-checked to make sure nothing was entered as text.

Index Match Problem
Hi,
is 7710 a number typed or imported, check if you don't have blank spaces in one of the two cells you are comparing "jeikenberry" wrote: I'm using the following formula, but it's returning #N/A: =INDEX('File X'!$F$1:$F$2000,MATCH(1,($B5='File X'!$A$1:$A$2000)*(S$4='File X'!$G$1:$G$2000),0) However, if I replace the S$4 with "7710", it returns the correct value.

Index Match Problem
I typed it in myself. I did double-check to make sure there are no spaces.

Index Match Problem
Check whether S4 cell is formatted as text . If so either change that to
general format and re-enter the number or modify the formula as (--S$4='File X'!$G$1:$G$2000) -- Jacob (MVP - Excel) "jeikenberry" wrote: I typed it in myself.
