    Re: Using Match and Vlookup to find the lookup range for a Vlookup

    Hi,

    I dont have the actual data as I am working on this for a colleague and
    they are hesitant to release a copy of company data (despite being told that
    no one will have a clue what its about!)

    The problem is that the columns change order every time. We cant help this
    as the information is gathered from a customer.

    I have attached my trial spreadsheet that I mocked up to try and solve the
    problem. hopefully this will help you see where I was going in my solution.

    As for Index Match, I am familiar with Match, but never had much need to use
    Index, so I am not familiar with what it does, so I'll look into that!
