How to get a return of specific column and relative row in excel?
Dear experts
For example, when I insert this formula ="E"&ROW() in a certain cell, I get E52 in return.
Then I want to use this formula within another formula: =IF(("E"&ROW())="EXAMPLE",Yes), but it just doesn't work and return the value as invalid
Is there any way to do this easily?
Thank you

pjuvish Use INDIRECT like this (and put quotation marks around the Yes and i assume you want No if the condition is not met)
=IF(INDIRECT("E"&ROW())="EXAMPLE","Yes","No")
