Default VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP

INDEX-MATCH is always a good one. If you have a discrete set of Heights and
Weights, you can also use combo boxes and the INDEX function or pair up a
VLOOKUP/HLOOKUP with a variable Column reference

Here is the scenario. I have a record with two values, for example: Height
and weight.

I need to reference a grid of data with standard heights on the Y axis
(first column) and standards weights across the top on the horizontal X axis
(row). Where the two intersect, going down then across (or vice versa) is
the value I need to retrieve.

Can anyone provide any assistance?

Thanks,

Mike
