Help needed for understanding with structured reference
Hi,
i need a bit of help to understand something with structured reference in excels Table
=DeptSales[Sales Amount],DeptSales[Commission Amount] | A combination of two or more columns | , (comma) union operator | C2:C7, E2:E7 |
I can't use this thing, the , comma union operator doesn t work, but i can use the : (colon) as below and i really don't understand why.
=DeptSales[[Sales Person]:[Region]] | All of the cells in two or more adjacent columns | : (colon) range operator | A2:B7 |
Thanks for your help and sorry for mybad english 🙂
