Why can't spreadsheets drive cars? They crash too often!
Try adding these 2 functions and then insert the formulas in the table as shown in picture provided. (type =Column_num(J4) in cell L4 in my example.)
Hope this helps.

VBA Code:
Public Function Row_num(N As Integer) As Integer
  Dim rng As Range
  Dim cl As Range
 
    Set rng = Sheet1.Range("A2:G11")
 
    For Each cl In rng
        If cl.Value = N Then
            Row_num = cl.Row
            Exit For
        End If
    Next cl
 
 
End Function


Public Function Column_num(N As Integer) As Integer
  Dim rng As Range
  Dim cl As Range
 
    Set rng = Sheet1.Range("A2:G11")
 
    For Each cl In rng
        If cl.Value = N Then
            Column_num = cl.Column
            Exit For
        End If
    Next cl
 
 
End Function

Which row/column should be returned if you have the same number twice?

if I entered a number 5 in cell D3 and second same number 5 entered in cell G9, then as a out put the answer shows row number 12 (sum of D3 & G9) and column number 11 (sum of D3 & G9).

actually my excel sheet having different names and different numbers but the same number is used for husband and wife (family tree). you can see in sample sheet (numbers 315 and 320. both numbers repeated in a particular sheet. Now when i applied the formula it shows wrong result in front of number 315 and 320 because both numbers have been written twice in the sheet. So how we can resolve the problem.
