VLOOKUP with variable column index

[vostroxe]

Hi guys, let say i have various layout each time I extracted the report, how do I make the column index will change the based on the result what I need. For example, in the sample, I required the result to lookup at Closing Balance everytime but next time I extract the report, the Closing Balance column might have change column position. Thanks in advance.

Try this instead...
=INDEX($G$2:$J$4,MATCH(M2,$F$2:$F$4,0),MATCH($N$1,$G$1:$J$1,0))

Anothetr option, keeping the vlookup...
=VLOOKUP(M2,F2:J4,MATCH($N$1,$F$1:$J$1,0),0)
