This should work


=INDEX(INDIRECT("'"&A7&"'!$D$1:$D$3"),MATCH(1,(IND IRECT("'"&A7&"'!$A$1:$A$3")=Summary!$E$2)*(INDIREC T("'"&A7&"'!$B$1:$B$3")=Summary!$F$2),0))


also entered with ctrl + shift & enter

The indirect function may indeed be the answer, but I have not been able
to
get it to work for me.

I have the following formula, which looks up the following:
The expense amount (Legal!D1:D3) in the year 2006 (Summary! E2) for the

=INDEX(Legal!$D$1:$D$3,MATCH(1,(Summary!$E$2=Legal !$A$1:$A$3)*(Summary!$F$2
=Legal!$B$1:$B$3),0))

The formula works great (entered as an array). Now, on the Summary
tab, I
would like to enter other sheet names for other departments (ie., HR,
Marketing), and have the formula read it from the cell. On the Summary
tab,
Legal is listed in call A7. So instead of Legal!$D1:$D3, how do I make
it
read A7!$D1:$D3, so I can copy it down and have the information pick up
for
my other departments?

I apologize if this has been asked/answered before; I haven't been able
to
find a spot-on matching problem, and nothing I've tried works.

Your formula is a bit too complex for me, but you should have a look
at the indirect-function.
