Hi Mike ,, works a treat, thanks for that ,,, the second part of my probelm
is to then have a formula in Sheet1 that returns data in Sheet2 based on the
two criteria ( cells C4 and E4 in Sheet 1 ). let me see if I can map this out.

In Sheet 1 I have name in C4 and type in E4. In Sheet 2 column A now shows
which row(s) contain the info I want to see based on these two criteria (
thanks to your solution ), now I want to have a formula in Sheet1, say
B8:B100, that shows every part number that matches the two criteria .... is
this possible?

John,

This is the correct syntax for the AND

=IF(B6="","",IF(AND(B6=Sheet1!$C$4,E6=Sheet1!$E$4) ,ROW(),""))

Hi, not quite what I am looking for ,,,, I need the data to look something
like this ...
formula being in Sheet2

=IF(B6="","",IF(B6=Sheet1!$C$4,AND(E6=Sheet1!$E$4, (ROW(),""))

so that it returns the row number in Sheet 2 based on the criteria in cells
C4 and E4 in Sheet 1 ......

Sheet 1 cell C4 contains name, cell E4 contains type ,,, in Sheet 2 column B
contains numerous entries with various names, column E contains various
types, so the formula would show only the row numbers that meet the two
criteria ,,, e.g. row 6, 10, 15, 25 etc etc etc

John,

I'm not sure I understand what you mean but maybe this

=IF(B6="","",IF(B6=Sheet1!$C$4,ROW()&" "&ROW(Sheet1!$C$4),""))

Hi guys, I am trying to establish if I can use the AND function with IF in
the following formula. The formula below retuns a row number based on the
criteria B6 in current sheet ( Sheet 2 ) if it matches the data in cell C4 of
Sheet 1, I would like the formula to return the same data ( row number )
based in C4 of Sheet 1 and E4 of Sheet 1 ,,,, I've tried adding an AND
statment but couldn't get it to work.




=IF(B6="","",IF(B6=Sheet1!$C$4,ROW(),""))
