Default Can you use 2 look up values in VLookup?

This did not work. I'm getting the value of the first Match returned. Can I
e-mail you my spreadsheet? I think the problem might be that the cell for
the 2nd matches look up value gets its value based on a VLookup.

Thanks.

Is it possible to use 2 look up values in VLookup? Or is there a

different
method I should be using?

For example:

Kitchen Bath Laundry
Model A Price A Price B Price C
Model B Price D Price E Price F

I have the model stored in cell A1 and the room stored in cell B1. I want
to look up the model (in cell A1) and the room (in cell B2) in the table
array (above) and return the appropriate price. If I have Model A and
Kitchen, I want VLookup to return Price A. If I have Model A and Bath I

want
VLookup to return Price B and so on.

Thank you.
