Thnaks Bob. They both work perfectly.

I have two UDF's that solve two specific problems for me. Both works
great. Now I just wonder if I could acchieve the thing, using only
Worksheet functions as some of the people that would like to use my
solution are not allowed to use macros or install add-ins. And if it
can be done, then how? Problem 1.



Data:



A B

John 10

Bill 10

George 14

John 12

Neil 12

George 12

John 20



I need to be able to look up any instance of a name in column 1, and
return the value found in column 2, exactly as VLOOKUP, only with the
option of deciding which instance I want returned. My UDF does
excatly that. =MULVLOOKUP(D1;2;A1:B7;2). D is the reference, 2 is
the number of the instance, A1:B7 is the data array and 2 is the
column containing the value I like returned. If the lookup-values
does not exist or if the requested instance number is higher than
the actual number of instances, #NA! is returned.





Problem 2:



Data:

A B C

1200 1235 Cows

1278 1330 Horses

1400 1600 Pigs

1651 2021 Hens

2100 2213 Sheep



I need to be able to type any number.

If I type a number between 1200 and 1235 it should return Cows.

If I type a number between 1236 and 1277 it should return #NA!

If I type a number between 1400 and 1600 it should return Horses

If I type a number between 1601 and 1650 it should return #NA!



and so on.



Any number less than 1200 or larger than 2213 should return #NA!



Again my UDF works ok: =IntervalLookup(D1;A1:C5;3) where D1 is the
reference cell A1:C5 the array and 3 the column, that shold be
returned. But could it be done with regular worksheet functions.
