Insert a new column, after B; that will be the new column C. In C1: =A1&B1.
Copy down as far as your data goes (I assume 10 rows in my formula).
With 1004 in G1 and Waipukurau in H1, use this formula (in I1, for example):
=VLOOKUP(G1&H1, C1:D10,2,FALSE)

Hi Niek

The data is supplied below and I want to return a value such as:

Lookup Origin and Destination (eg: 1004 & Waipukurau) and return mileage
(eg: 75)

Cheers
Kay

Hi

I am using Microsoft Excel 2007 and I have data entered as follows:


Origin Destination Mileage
1004 Hastings 22
1004 Waipukurau 75
1005 Napier 22
1005 Waipukurau 53


I want a lookup formula that will lookup data in both the Origin and
Destination columns and return the value in the Mileage Column

Many thanks
Kay
