Default Seeking Improvement on excel function

Dear T. Valko,
Thank, I know what is my problem. In order to make thing easy, I would like
to break the whole thing into stages and explain step by step.

Just before I talk about the complicate function, first of all, I would like
to ask you one minor question regarding your previous function. Your
previous suggested function as follow:
=IF(COUNTIF(INDEX(B$2:C$4,MATCH(D$1,A$2:A$4,0),0), $E1),LOOKUP($E1,E$21:F$30),
"-")
I placed this formula in the cell of G1 and drag it from G1 to G10. Because
the formula detects E2, so G will show in the cell of G2. G is come the
database as follow:

E21 = 11 F21 = T
E22 = 12 F22 = G
E23 = 13 F23 = R
E24 = 14 F24 = E
E25 = 15 F25 = K
E26 = 16 F26 = Q
E27 = 17 F27 = L
E28 = 18 F28 = C
E29 = 19 F29 = Z
E30 = 20 F30 = I

What I want to do the first thing is to revise the above formula slightly.
The above formula will achieve the result based on the variable from E1 to
E10, NOT from F1 to F10 as show you just now. So my first question is that
do you think the argument of above function can be changed to F1 rather than
E1?

Many thanks for your time,
Wilchong

I'm not following you on this. Post some sample data and explain what result
you expect.
