Default How do I select a value from a table based on 2 conditional refs?

Hi

For your example try:
=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A4=F1)*(B1:B4=G2)*(C1:C4))
I'm presuming (by the way) that your example is wrong, as I would have
expected it to return %.
When using SUMPRODUCT, you can't use full column ranges (A:A) and the ranges
used must be the same size.

Hope this helps.

I'm trying to select a value from a table based on 2 variable references.

If been looking at using a VLOOKUP function to do this but because there
are
2 dependant references I'm a little stuck. I thought that maybe a VLOOKUP
with a MATCH function incorporated might be an option as the entries in
each
column are not unique.

To give you an example of what I am trying to achieve I done the table
below.

Basically if F1=9 & G2=2 then select C1 (*)

A B C D F G
1 9 3 * % 9 2
2 9 2 % &
3 9 1 # *
4 7 3 * %

Thanks
