VLOOKUP for multiple colums
Your formula does not fly Stephen.

To use Vlookup you'll need to extend your first column to include the whole
alphabet a-z and repeat the numbers in the second column. Vlookup can only
search a single column.
If the layout you show needs to stay as is you could do the following:
Lets say you're typing a letter into cell A15 and want B15 to display the
associated number value. In b15 write...
=sumproduct(--(a3:a11=A15),--(b3:b11=a15),--(c3:c11=a15),D3:d11)

I am trying to return a number (1-9) for a letter.
For instance:
A B C D
A J S 1
B K T 2
C L U 3
D M V 4
E N W 5
F O X 6
G P Y 7
H Q Z 8
I R 9
I can do the first column, but when I try the second or third columns, I get
an error value. So how can I type in a W and get it to return a 5, an I to
return a 9, and so on?
