    I don't understand what you want to achieve.

    Very patient Mike....I don't understand either.

    Eran, could you try again to help us understand what you are trying to do?

    yes

    i have data base.
    i want a function that put on the number 100 in cell c2 by using something like "the column next to" 1 (cell a1)
    for example , in cell c3 i want to get "the cell next to a3" -----> 50

    Permit me to butt in here but maybe this is what you are chasing? It does seem to be going about this the long way given that (=B1 in C1 and fill down) does exactly the same thing.

    I have included on the second sheet a couple of examples of Index Match, one of which I downloaded from Debra Dalgliesh's web site www.contexures.com.
