    Identify Which Column A Value Exists In?

    New to this forum but a pretty experienced excel user.

    Does anyone know how to return which column (by number), that a given value on a specified array (row) exists in?


    For example, if for the below string or row of numbers, is there a function that could tell me that "7" exists in column 4 of this array or row?

    1 4 5 7 8 4 9

    Ultimately trying to incorporate this with a VLOOKUP, but don't know how to indicate what column a given value may exist in?

    Thank you for the help.
