Default LOOKUP

Thanks - between your reply and BJ's I now have my resolution - is there any
way i can use Conditional Formatting to hide the 'not applicable' responses?

You will need to supply a bit more information if you want a specific
solution, but by concatenating A and B together (in a newly inserted
column C on the sheet you have) then you could make use of VLOOKUP. It
might be better to set this up on a new sheet, where A2 and B2 contain
the sets of criteria you are interested in, then if your original
sheet is called Sheet1 you would have something like this in C2 of the
new sheet:

=VLOOKUP($A2&$B2,Sheet1!$C$2:$Y$1000,COLUMN()-1,0)

The formula can be copied across to X2 to return the data which
matches. You can also put other criteria in A3/B3 etc down these
columns, and copy the formula down.

Hope this helps.
