Do you know if it is possible to put that into a formula to return the
appropriate answer based on the choices or can it only be done using
autofilter?

If you re-structure your data so the criteria can be applied to columns only,
then you can use AutoFilter. You can set separate criteria for each column
and Excel will display only those rows meeting the criteria.

Hi

Can you help?

I have a complex array of values and want to return an answer based on
certain selections. The array allows the user to calculate the capacity of a
road based on road class (two way or dual carriageway), number of lanes (2,
3, 4, 5, 6, etc), road type (A, B, C, D, E), and road width (6.1m, 6.75m,
7.3m, 9.0m, 10.0m, etc). So for example, a two way road could be type B or C
or D, then there could be any number of lanes between 2 and 5, and then any
road width between 6.1 and 9.0. So the possible value choices become less and
less as more choices are made.

So im trying to use index and match but doesnt seem to like the fact that
some choices are in rows and some are in columns. Would it be possible to use
VBA in any way. Im already using combo boxes to choose the input values.

I hope this makes sense, it is difficult to include the array itself as the
formatting becomes skewed when I paste it into this message.

Thanks for your help
