Hi. Can someone please help me? I have read the LDW Power manual and recently bought a Lotus 123 manual. I still, however, cannot seem to get what I need out of the program! Please let it not be ignorance/stupidity PLEASE HELP ME! My 'basic' data base looks as such: Apartment # Name January February .... 1 Mary Lou $OO.OO $00.00 2 Joe Blow $00.00 3 Dixy Ray $00.00 $00.00 . . . My Input Range (Reciept Format) is: Apartment # : 2 Name : Joe Blow Rent Amount : $300.00 Rent Being paid : $250 Month : FEBRUARY ------ I have it access the Apartment # and fill out everything else (name, rent amount, ...) in the input range except the "Rent Being paid" which is where the problem is. I would like the "Rent Being paid" amount, in this case $250.00, to be updated in a specific cell in the Data Base. Apartment # Name January February ..... 1 Mary Lou $00.00 $00.00 2 Joe Blow $00.00 (RIGHT HERE!!) 3 Dixy ray $00.00 $00.00 Obviously in a much larger Data Base I cannot and will not go and find the address of such a cell. I can have LDW use the @HLOOKUP function to find a value in the right cell but I cannot seem to access the address using this function or any other function. This would enable me to use the address and copy the contents of Rent Being paid into the appropriate cell. This seems like a very simple thing for a spreadsheet to do but I probably will go bald becsause of all the hair I have been pulling out of my head!! Any help would be Greatly appreciated.
