OR, you could combine elements of both Chuck's and Dave's examples and does
not need a concatenated helper column.

=INDEX(range,MATCH(A1&B1,AA1:AA10&AB1:AB10,0))

Entered as an array with the key combo of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER.

I know how to use vlookup() but I have found a new problem.

Say I have a BIG sheet and want to search it for MORE THAN ONE match in
multiple columns.

Further explination:

I do a vlookup() of the table, but there are multiple matches with the
first
paramater.

So a second paramater is given and so from the first match, I want a
second
match made.

Is this possible?

thanks much in advance.
