Must you use a table?

Can you do something like this:

=index2(C4, ("m", "t", "w", "r", "f"))

where cell c4 contains a number used as an index into my list of letters

Thank you.

Looking all over for something like this ... and right after I post

choose().

Sorry for the noise.

Click to expand...

you can also use INDEX. Then you have to write your characters as array:
=INDEX({"m";"t";"w";"r";"f"},C4)
