I am trying to do a comparison/Conditional Formatting between columns based on a drop-down choice. I have a formula that works fine in the spreadsheet, but does not seem to be working in my Conditional Formatting formula. Is INDIRECT causing my issue?
Formula is:
=IF(H1>100, IF((H1-INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(H1), MATCH($H$4,$A$3:$I$3,0))))/((H1+INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(H1), MATCH($H$4,$A$3:$I$3,0))))/2)>$J$2,TRUE,FALSE),FALSE)
Kind of hard to read, but the part that broke it is trying to grab my comparison cell using the following:
INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(H1), MATCH($H$4,$A$3:$I$3,0)))
Where $H$4 is my drop-down value. So I am selecting the column that contains the data I want to compare to, then using address to select the current rows cell, then accessing it with INDIRECT.
If I replace the INDIRECT part with an actual cell, everything works as it should as well.
When I use the first formula, everything looks great if I input it into a cell on the worksheet, but I would rather not dirty it up if I don't have to. Is there a way to make this work?
