    Cell reference used for Defined Range

    In the attached sheet. Cell C6 represents the concatenation of aspects of a product. I want to know if it is possible to use that cell as the named range (there is a corresponding named range) in a lookup. The lookup gives me the product code.

    Thanks

    You will need to use INDIRECT - note it is Volatile

    =VLOOKUP(C7,INDIRECT(C12),2,FALSE)
    My Recommended Reading:

    Volatility
    Sumproduct & Arrays
    Pivot Intro
    Email from XL - VBA & Outlook VBA
    Function Dictionary & Function Translations
    Dynamic Named Ranges
