The data is in a separate file containing the same 3 fields plus additional
fields that I want to bring the information into my file. The data file is
organized by collumns such as:
1st collumn=Name
2nd collumn=Age
3rd collumn=BirthMonth
4th collumn=Status
5th collumn=Grade
etc...
My second file, I will have the same collumns but I want to enter the
information in the first 3 collumns and then I want my formula to match them
to the data file and return the 4th collumn
So, I want it to look at the 3 fields that I entered and look into the data
file and give me the status or Grade of that individual that i just entered.
Just like a Vlookup, but instead of just looking at the left-most collumn, I
want it to look at 3 collumns and match the 3 collumns on the data file and
return a value.
I hope that will be a bit more clear!
Thank you for replying

Hi!
Need more detail!
Where are the "fields"? Where is the data you want to return?
Detail! Be specific.

Hello,
I'm trying to look-up and match 3 fields from two separate sheets from a
range of information. For example, in my sheet I will enter information
such
as
Name, Age, BirthMonth and I want to have a formula that will returned
another field called Status by performing a lookup from my source file.
What formulas do I have to use to obtain what I'm looking for?
Thank you,
Nelson
