Maybe the OP had a typo, and he wants 30 instead of 20.<g

Then ... *only* the Sumproduct would suffice.

Ooops!

I see there are dupe criteria that equal 2005 "Red" "A".....so:

How do you determine which instance of matching criteria you want
returned?

This array formula will return the LAST instance:


=INDEX(D1:D100,LARGE((A1:A100=2005)*(B1:B100="Red" )*(C1:C100="a")*(ROW(A1:A1
00)),1))

Also, since there are duplicate matching criteria, the Sumproduct will not
work.

I need to slow down and read more carefully!

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.
