As long as the combination ID#&Address is unique, it will work.
If it happens that you have both the same several times, it will only look
at the first row where it appears.

That sounds good, but I've been told that vlookups only look at the first row
that matches your lookup field. If I have multiple rows with the same ID#,
will it look at each of those rows for the data?

You may include an additional column in your table and put in the formula e.g.
= B2&E2.
In the vlookup-formula you have to put in the lookup-value in the same way,
concatonating "person id#" and "address".

I have rows of data that contain the following
column data
b person id#
e address
p date moved in

there are possibly multiple rows of data for each person's id, if they have
moved more than once. I need to do a vlookup to look at a person's id#, &
address & bring back that move in date. How do I accomplish this?
