One alternative to try ..
Assume the source table below is in Sheet1, cols A to E,
data from row2 down to say row100
Date Chq# Amt acct# Ref#
23-Dec-05 2222 198 1234 1111
24-Dec-05 3333 117 1235 1112
25-Dec-05 4444 196 1235 1113
26-Dec-05 5555 158 1234 1114
etc
In Sheet2,
we have the Ref# in A5: 1113
and the Acct# in A10: 1235
Then we could ..
Put in B5, and array-enter the formula
(i.e. press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER):
=INDEX(Sheet1!$C$2:$C$100,MATCH(1,(Sheet1!$E$2:$E$ 100=A5)*(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$10
0=A10),0))
Put in C5 and array-enter the formula
(i.e. press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER):
=INDEX(Sheet1!$A$2:$A$100,MATCH(1,(Sheet1!$E$2:$E$ 100=A5)*(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$10
0=A10),0))
Format C5 as date
For the sample source data,
B5 will return: 196 (the Amt)
C5 returns: 25-Dec-05 (the Date)
Adapt the ranges to suit the extent of the data in Sheet1

Hello everyone,
I am trying to figure out how to execure a Lookup with multiple look up
criterias. This is my formula right now:
"=LOOKUP(A5,JOURNAL!$J:$J,JOURNAL!F:F)" I tried to use the and
function to say "=Lookup(and(A5,A10), ...)" But that errored out. My
goal right now is to have function look in a different sheet and if
there is a cell whose row meets both criteria it puts it on a different
page.
For example:
In Sheet 1 i have 50 rows of entries with the date, check number,
amount, account number, reference number, ... In Sheet 2 i have a
summary of Joe's account and i want to see if he has been paying me on
time. So i want to enter the reference number in cell A5 and in cell
B5 i have a Lookup function to lookup Sheet 1 and the criteria is if
the row has Joe's account number, and Reference number then i want it
to tell me the ammount. And in the next cell i would change the
formula to give me the date.
I hope that made sence. Email me if you have a question about what i'm
tryign to do.
Thank you all for the help.
Sincerely,
Leon
