    Returning a cell value

    I have two spreadsheets with one common column. Using the ADDRESS and MATCH finctions I have been able to return the cell address of the common cell. How do I return the value of a cell, not the common one, from the row where the common values match?

    Use Index...

    e.g.

    =Index(A1:A100,Match(X1,B1:B100),0)

    will return from column A, the corresponding value to the match of X1 in range B1:B100

    Where there is a will there are many ways. Pick One!
