Can someone please help me fix my formula, Im trying to make it dynamic by using two variables "loanNumber" and "Name". All the other parts are named Cells / ranges.


Cells(Rows.Count, 6).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select
ActiveCell.Formula = _
"=INDEX(Loan_inv_sec,MATCH(loanNumber,Loan_num,0),MATCH(Name,loan_inv_titles,0))"
Range("AN9").Select
 

Excel Facts

Back into an answer in Excel
Use Data, What-If Analysis, Goal Seek to find the correct input cell value to reach a desired result
You have to concatenate them into the string:

ActiveCell.Formula = "=INDEX(Loan_inv_sec,MATCH(" & loanNumber & ",Loan_num,0),MATCH(" & Name & ",loan_inv_titles,0))"

PS. I wouldnt use Name as the name of a variable.

How can I make the variables or formula include "x" for looking up columns or rows with that title.

Sorry not clear what you mean. Your formula looks up rows and columns based on the two match formulas.
