excel formula - Store column name in an extra cell -
by now, use =function(tablename[[columnname]:[columnname]]). there (easy) way store columnname in cell x1 , use =function(tablename[[x1]:[x1]])
my table named tablename:
columna columnb 1 2 b 3 c 4 d cell a1 = columna <-the string
cell b1 = =counta(tablename[[columna]:[columna]])
cell a2 = columnb <-the string
cell b2 = =counta(tablename[[columnb]:[columnb]])
my aim formulas in b1 , b2 use values in a1 , a2.
what tried yet like: =counta(tablename[[indirect(a1)]:[indirect(a1)]])
the indirect function converts text string usable cell reference or in case structured (list object) table name.
=vlookup(k3, indirect(j3), 3, false) in sample worksheet illustrated above, j3 data validation list source of aa2:aa3. k3 typed value , l3 contains formula. if j3 switched table1 l3 becomes 66.
