Two Matches, then Sumproduct of Values
P.S.
Here's what I'm thinking...
If Sheet1 was something like this:
.....C.........E......V
Andy...Carat...10
............Carat...20
............Carat...15
Bill......X.........10
............X.........10
Lisa....Y.........22
...........Y.........17
Then we should be able to do this.

You've helped me many , many, many times before, Biff. I appreciate the
help
thins time; I think this one may be outside the capabilities of Excel's
predefined functions. I'm going to the Programming area and look for a
UDF,
or if I can't find anything, ask for help from the experts there. I'm
not
very good with developing UDFs.
If you can think of something, please post back. Please don't spend a
lot
of time on it though!!
Thanks for everything!!

I have to recant my last statement; it is NOT working. Dang!! I could
swear
it was working a couple hours ago. Is there any way to do what I am
trying
to do? If I add in a few extra names (Andy, Dave, etc.) I can get the
desired results... The thing is, I will only have the name one time
in
that
Column C.
Appreciate any help with this.
Thanks so much,

Wait, I think I got it! This seems to work:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$678=Sheet1!$E$2:$E$678),--(Sheet1!$C$2:$C$678=C2),Sheet1!$V$2:$V$678)
It's net even an array...

Yes, adding those names (Andy, Dave, etc.) in there was the only
way I
could
get the values I was looking for. However, those names will only
apprear
once. I thought the Sumproduct, inside the array, picked up all
incidences
of data (names, numbers, etc.) Is there a workaround? Is there
another way
to do this? I'm sure there is a VBA solution (Union, probably),
but
the guy
that I am doing this for is definitely VBA savvy. I wanted to give
him
a
function that he will be able to maintain.
Any other thoughs or is this a dead end?
Thanks,

I was trying to get Cell M2 to be 4500.
Thanks,

You would need "Andy D Fox" in C2 and C3 to get that answer.
