    How do I obtain the address of a cell using the vlookup function?

    I'm trying to obtain the address of a cell using the Cell Function and the
    Vlookup function. i.e. =Cell("address",vlookup(A2,A3:D20,4,False)) However, I
    get an error when I execute the function. Any suggestions?

    Why don't you try MATCH instead?

    =MATCH(A2,A3:A20,0) will give you the row, relative to the range. For
    example, if the value in A2 is in A5, the MATCH function will return 2-5=3.

    Hope this helps and if it does please vote for this post.

    Not possible using VLOOKUP, try

    =CELL("address",INDEX(A3:D20,MATCH(A2,A3:A20,0),4))
