    Match Error with Dates

    I am trying to use the match function to get the location of a value for a given month and year. I have the dates stored as dd/mm/yy. I have tried many different match types but all return the #N/A value. Please help this is driving me crazy!

    Change $A$2:$B$13 to $A$2:$A$13.

    to get the location of the date you could use: =MATCH(D2,$A$2:$A$13,0)+1 or ="A"&MATCH(D2,$A$2:$A$13,0)+1
