hi <br />
Is there any way to reference a column name instead of a column number in a vlookup? in the attached file, I'd like to be able to reference the Premium column in the formula rather than column 2. Any suggestions?<br />
Thanks! <br />

Vlookup with matching column NAME not number?

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.
