    I appreciate the videos you produce. I slightly changed your formula to =VLOOKUP($A$18:$A$20,Review,MATCH(B17:D17,$A$4:$H$4,0),FALSE) to create a dynamic spill array. This spills down. I then cop over to population and spill the other two columns. I tried to do a dynamic spill array for the range & match permitted me to do that, but it did not work right in the vlookup formula. Just trying to better understand all that can be done.
