    Vlookup with Cell.address

    Hello guys.

    I am trying to make a vlookup formula referencing to a cell which is constantly changing place. I thought of using a variable which is the cell.address of this given cell. Therefore I am using the find function, and then I try to concatenate two variables on the vlookup - one of them is the cell.address.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Without any arguments Address will return the address in A1 notation.

    Can you post an example of the formula you want to use?

    The cell.address is a string like "$A$1", that's not in R1C1 syntax. If you want to use the string, you'll need to switch to the non-R1C1 syntax for entering a formula.

    Perhaps:
