    Find the position of a value within a rectangular range

    Is there any way to find where the 1 is in the range A1:C3? (The answer is C2.) The actual application involves a larger range. Thanks in advance!

    Columns
    A B C
    Row
    1 5 6 8
    2 4 3 1
    3 2 7 9

    Could there be more than one 1 in the range?

    So if there was a 1 in B1 and another in A2 what result would you want?

    Ideally, I would like to find all the locations of the 1 in the range.
