Ok..I'm not exactly sure I'm understanding what you want, Don...but if all
you want is a formula in I1 that will give you whatever is in the row of
column C that where today's date is in column A, this would do that:

 =VLOOKUP((TODAY()),A3:C1000,3,FALSE)

Subject: [mso] Excel formula assistance

In column A I have the dates listed for each day of the workweek.  I have a
value in column C that I want to view.  Both are in the same row.  I would
like to put a formula in Column I Row 1 that would give me the value in
column C for the corresponding present date (today)0 in column A.  If we
have to have a range of row numbers listed for the columns we could use
3-1000.
I was trying to figure something out and came up with maybe a partial
formula or maybe not?  Anyway it went like this:

=(date(year(now()),month(A3:A1000),day(A3:A1000))=now()

Could be off the wall, but It didn't work either.  If it is even close I
couldn't figure out how to extract the value from column C in the same row.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank You
Don
