    Find cell address reference for index and match to create use OFFSET for next column

    I want to use the cell address reference for index and match to create an OFFSET formula to obtain the cell value in the next column for a calculation. Please see attached spreadsheet, cell references are filled "yellow".

    =CELL("address",INDEX($Q$14:$Z$30,MATCH($C$4,$H$14:$H$30,0),1))

    Tried various formula and can't work it out.

    Thanks

    what exactly are you trying to do here?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)

    If your INDEX/MATCh formula retuns the Q17 value and you want the one from the next column then you can just increment the number at the end, e.g.

    =INDEX($Q$14:$Z$30,MATCH($C$4,$H$14:$H$30,0),2)

    That should give you the value from R17 - is that what you need?

    Re: Find cell address reference for index and match to create use OFFSET for next column

    Hi FDibbins and daddylonglegs

    Please see attached spreadsheet, I have outlined the cells/row with a "red" border. I would like to find the corresponding cell for the model match C4 in columns Q, T, W, Z and AC.
    In the current sheet the cell reference I am looking for is Z17 because it is equal to C9.
    I am trying to find a solution to obtain the adjacent cell AA17 so that I can use the value in the next formula.
    The Index and Match in cell E9 is the prior step to the solution.

    Hope the above and attached are a better explanation.

    Thanks for your support.

    See if this will do it for you...

    =INDEX(OFFSET($H$13,MATCH($C$4,$H$14:$H$30,0),0,1,COUNTA(H13:AE13)),,MATCH(C9,OFFSET($H$13,MATCH($C$4,$H$14:$H$30,0),0,1,COUNTA(H13:AE13)),0)+1)

    Your reference in F9 was pretty meaningless, but that formula will find and return ONE cell to the right of what you search for

    I think you'd get the same result with this formula

    =INDEX(I14:AE30,MATCH(C4,H14:H30,0),MATCH(C9,INDEX(I14:AE30,MATCH(C4,H14:H30,0),0),0)+1)
