vlookup question
How do I make it so that the # of rows over increases by 1 everytime I move over one to the right? For example, take in cell B2 I have vlookup(B1,some range,3,0) and in B3 I want vlookup(B1,some range,4,0) and in B4 I want vlookup(B1,some range,5,0), etc. How do I set up my formula so that the col index number increases as I move right?
Make the numbers cell references to cells that increase.
So say in A1-A25 I have the numbers 1,2,3,4, etc till 25. Have my vlookup(reference,range,vlookup of 1,2,3,4 etc,0) like that?
=vlookup(reference, range,A1,0)
When you copy that across it will automatically become =vlookup(reference, range,A2,0)

Reference the row. try the following formula for cell B1, B2, B3, B4, b5 in a blank worksheet.
=Row(A15) =Row(A16) =Row(A17) =Row(A18) =Row(A19)
Just make the vlookup a function of the that. So you just need to figure out what the offset is betweem these values.
For example in your above example B2's lookup row/col is 3, while B4's is 5. So obviously your lookup row/col is Row(Range)+1. You would change your above formula to:
B2 = vlookup(B1,some range,(Row(B2))+1,0) B4 = vlookup(B1,some range,(Row(B4))+1,0)
B2 = vlookup(B1,some range,(Row(B2)+1),0) B4 = vlookup(B1,some range,(Row(B4)+1),0)
