    Absolute $ or INDIRCET not working inside my formula

    Good morning all,

    For some reason Absolute $ or INDIRECT is not working inside my formula when I add a row to my chart. Formula keeps adjusting.
    Here is my formula...=IFERROR(LARGE(IF($B$5:$B$50=$K108,$A$5:$A$50),1),"")
    $B$5:$B$50 goes to $B$6:$B$51 AND $A$5:$A$50 goes to $A$6:$A$51..... it can't do that, throws my counts out, needs to stay in this range B5:B50 and A5:A50 when I add a row to chart

    Also when I use INDIRECT
    =IFERROR(INDIRECT(LARGE(IF("B5:B50"=$K108),INDIRECT("A5:A50"),1),""))))
    I keep getting a error with =$K108, which is a cell reference in my formula which the formula needs to look at

    So what do I do, or what formula do I need to use to stop this from adjusting as I add rows to a chart to stop formula from adjusting?
    Any ideas anyone???

    Thank you,

    Re: Absolute $ or INDIRCET not working inside my formula

    This should work

    =IFERROR(LARGE(IF(INDIRECT("$B$5:$B$50")=$K108,INDIRECT("$A$5:$A$50")),1),"")

    Cos they're now text they won't change.

    I dont know if you need to do an INDIRECT("$K108") in there, if it changes and you dont want it to put the INDIRECT("") around it as stated in this sentence.

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.

    =IFERROR(LARGE(IF(INDIRECT("$B$5:$B$50")=$K108,INDIRECT("$A$5:$A$50")),1),"")

    giving error.... your formula is missing a parenthesis--) or (.check the formula, and then add the parenthesis in the appropriate place.

    I click ok and excel highlights the end of the statement where ,"") is.

    So I add the parenthesis at the end where it hightlights. But now it is saying few to arguments.
