    Removing #spill! and then #N/A from the range

    Hi,

    This SPILL is new to me as I've hardly encountered this situation until yesterday. Now it is doing my head in. I figured that by removing the obstruction in column below I had resolved the situation but I then end up with #N/A and greyed out formula below. I can't seem to find a resolution from Microsoft resources. I was using Index Match in the cell and it's the first time that I come across the border range affecting my formulas.

    I tried adding @ to the formula which removed the problem but subsequently it doesn't return the correct answer!

    Help is greatly appreciated.

    I am using Microsoft 365 by the way, not Excel 2007

    The MATCH sysntax was the wrong way round.

    =INDEX($B$1:$B$9,MATCH(E1,$A$1:$A$9,0))

    BOOM! You are absolutely right. Now that I've looked at my other spreadsheets that's the right way round it definitely explains why I wasn't experiencing SPILL and N/A!!!

    Thanks Glenn.

    It's the least I can do. It's bugged me the whole morning but I didn't see the problem.
