I have the following code in my macro:
itemnocol = Application.Match("Item#", Worksheets("Prices").Range("1:1"), 0)
banana = Application.Match("Dist Price", Worksheets("Prices").Range("1:1"), 0)

I get the correct answer for "itemnocol", but using the exact same wording, I get an "Error 2042" for "banana". I've stared at this for a very long time and I just cannot see what I am not getting the correct response for banana.

This is what makes up my top row (1:1) -
[TABLE="width: 846"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Item#[/TD]
[TD]Description[/TD]
[TD]UOM[/TD]
[TD]Case Pack [/TD]
[TD]Dist Price [/TD]
[TD]MSRP[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
It means 'Dist Price' is not in row 1 of the 'Prices' worksheet. You probably have a trailing space or something in the cell.
