Vlookup based on two lookup values
Dear All,
How would I write a vlookup type statement that checks against two values, rather than one. For example I want the formula to check a list for rows that have the same values as Column A and B, then take the value from column 3 in the vlookup range. Although the formula below does not work it might make it a little clearer. =VLOOKUP(A2 AND B2,OtherSheet!A1:G10,4,FALSE) Thanks, Trip |

I like this syntax:
=index(othersheet!d1:d10, match(1,(a2=othersheet!a1:a10)*(b2=othersheet!b1:b 10),0)) (one cell) This is an array formula. Hit ctrl-shift-enter instead of enter. If you do it correctly, excel will wrap curly brackets {} around your formula. (don't type them yourself.)

I suggest handling the problem through concatenation.
Create a new column as first column in the table. A1:G10 will become B1:H10. Use formula A1=B1&"|"&C1 Now the following formula should work =VLOOKUP(A2&"|"&B2,OtherSheet!A1:H10,5,FALSE) T G Sekhar |
