<h1>COLUMN Function</h1>
|
|
<p>The <b>COLUMN</b> function is one of the lookup and reference functions. It is used to return the column number of a cell.</p>
|
|
<p>The <b>COLUMN</b> function syntax is:</p>
|
|
<p style="text-indent: 150px;"><b><em>COLUMN([reference])</em></b></p>
|
|
<p>where <b><em>reference</em></b> is a reference to a cell.</p>
|
|
<p class="note"><b>Note</b>: <b><em>reference</em></b> is an optional argument. If it is omitted, the function will return the column number of a cell selected to display the <b>COLUMN</b> function result. </p>
|
|
<p>To apply the <b>COLUMN</b> function,</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>select the cell where you wish to display the result,</li>
|
|
<li>click the <b>Insert function</b> <img alt="Insert function icon" src="../images/insertfunction.png" /> icon situated at the top toolbar,
|
|
<br />or right-click within a selected cell and select the <b>Insert Function</b> option from the menu,
|
|
<br />or click the <img alt="Function icon" src="../images/function.png" /> icon situated at the formula bar,
|
|

|
|

|
|
<li>enter the required argument,</li>
|
|
<li>press the <b>Enter</b> button.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>The result will be displayed in the selected cell.</p>
