Two Level Search
When you have multiple criteria use SUMPRODUCT()
=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A10=criteria1)*(B1:B10=criteria2), E1:E10)
If you are using Excel 2007 you can use SUMIFS() to acheive the same result
=SUMIFS(E1:E10,A1:A10,criteria1,B1:B10,criteria2)
'or with cells F1 and F2 holding the criteria
=SUMIFS(E1:E10,A1:A10,F1,B1:B10,F2)

I have simplified the example ----- I would like to search the table shown
below and determine the amount Pledge by each family. However since there
are last names that are the same, a simple vlookup does not work. For
example, I must define my search so I get Bill Johnson, not Frank Johnson.
For the example, I would like the search result to appear in the column
labeled "Search Result".
