Hi,
I have a formula that uses the INDEX and MATCH functions to locate a call containing a number value.

The formula appears to be working, based on the Function Arguments dialogue box however is still displaying a value of 0 in the cell.

The formula with the cell is:
G3

The formula is:
=INDEX(F3:DM3,1,MATCH(UNICHAR(UNICODE(F3)-1),$F3:$DM3,0)+7)

The cell the formula points to is:
U3

The value of U3 is:
40943.775

An image of the Function Arguments dialogue box is:

Do you know why the Function Arguments dialogue box and cell value are not aligned?

Many thanks for any help you can provide in advance,
James
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Hi,
Is it possible that this issue is caused by the MATCH formula investigating the same array as he INDEX formula?

Cheers,
James
