Did you hit ctrl-shift-enter instead of just enter?

This is an array formula. Hit ctrl-shift-enter instead of enter. If you do it
correctly, excel will wrap curly brackets {} around your formula. (don't type
them yourself.)

ps. You don't need that first + either.
=INDEX(Sheet2!D1:D255,MATCH(K1&I2,Sheet2!B1:B255&S heet2!C1:C255,0))
(ctrl-shift-enter)

works fine.

=INDEX(Sheet1!$C$1:$C$5,MATCH($A2&B$1,Sheet1!$A$1: $A$5&Sheet1!$B$1:$B$5,0))

as an array formula, so commit with Ctrl-Shift-Enter
