Hello,
I am trying to run a lookup in Excel but do not know if this can be done.
I have a populated table that cannot/should not be modified with a side header 
of values,
and a top header with values. I need to find a row for a variable using the 
side header. Once 
there, I need to find a cell with a value equal to or next value greater than 
the a constant. I 
then need to return the value in the column header that corresponds. Can this 
be done?
 
One of my brothers said it is a reverse lookup and the only way he knows this 
can be done
is with Access. If this is the case, can I use OpenOffice Base to program at 
home and 
open it on Access at work? I know this is not a MS product, but I do not have 
Access in my version of Office.  Plus, I have no clue how to use either.
 
Thank you in advance.
Adam
