Getting a Value Giving Column and Row on Excel

Many times it's interesting to see how business requires you to use functions from Excel that you don't even know they exist. In this post I have the following mission: I want to know the value of a cell when I write the column and row, consider that column and row can have any identification.
 
Excel with cells having the cell coordinate

To get the value from a table you must use 2 functions: Match and Index, Match function gives you the position of a given value in a range, therefore it's necessary to first get the position of the column and the row.

Use function in Excel to get value of cell calculated

Once you have both positions use them into Index function that is going to give you the value located in the position you put related to a given matrix.

After this, select "OK" and close the dialog bo...

Turn Horizontal Visio Swimlanes into Vertical Ones

Image
In one ocassion, a friend at work called me because she had a problem with Microsoft Visio , she was trying to draw a process flowchat but using swimlanes, this was not a problem until she realized that it would be better to use vertical swimlanes instead of horizontal ones.    But, when she tried to drag a vertical one it just put together to the previous swimlanes created before.  To avoid creating a new visio document and lost your work just go to 'Cross-Functional Flowchart' ribbon and select 'Orientation' and 'Vertical'.     And it's done, now you can work with vertical swimlanes or if you like it you can turn them back to horizontal ones.
