    Lookup Help

    Trying to create a standard VLOOKUP, however i want a cell value to stipulate the range i a VLOOKUPing against

    ie: =VLOOKUP(A5,"Cell C2 Value",2,0)

    The user will change Cell C2 on a dropdown list and this should then change the range the lookup is pointing to

    Please help ripping my hair out

    You can use INDIRECT, assuming C2 contains any valid range, e.g. F2:G10 then use

    =VLOOKUP(A5,INDIRECT(C2),2,0)
