Oops. A lost comma!

=INDEX(D1:D100,MATCH(1,(A1:A100=2005)*(B1:B100="Re d")*(C1:C100="A"),0))

The OP may want to consider using a pivottable, too.

To read more about the pivottable stuff, you may want to look at some links:

And Debra's own site:

John Walkenbach also has some at:

(look for Tony Gwynn's Hit Database)

Chip Pearson keeps Harald Staff's notes at:

Hi!

Entered as an array using the key combo of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER:

=INDEX(D1:D100,MATCH(1(A1:A100=2005)*(B1:B100="Red ")*(C1:C100="A"),0))

You might also be able to use the non-array entered Sumproduct function
since the returned value is numeric:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100=2005),--(B1:B100="Red"),--(C1:C100="A"),D1:D100)

I've seen several posts for multi-condition vlookups when data is in
sequential columns but it wasn't clear how to accomplish the same thing
when
you need to index a column not adjacent to the columns you are testing.
For
example using the following:

Year Model Company a b c e
2005 Red a 10
2005 Green b 100
2004 Green c 50
2005 Red a 20
2002 Yellow a 10

How would you right a vlookup that only searched for 2005, Red, Company A
and returned 20 from colum e?

Thanks in advance.
