Excel2003 ... I have the following Formula which is working fine:

=INDEX('Short Desc'!$E$2:$E$10000,MATCH(LEFT($C3,SEARCH(" ",$C3)-1),'Short
Desc'!$D$2:$D$10000,0))&" "&E3

Issue is ... Formula is returning 1st occurance of the Match found in the
Index ... So I need to check a 2nd criteria ("WS1 Col B" vs "Short Desc Col
B").

How do I add this 2nd criteria? ... Thanks ... Kha

Please note that this is an array formula. Within the cell in edit mode (F2)
paste this formula and press Ctrl+Shift+Enter to apply this formula. If
successful in 'Formula Bar' you can notice the curly braces at both ends like
"{=<formula}"

The below is just an example to show how to add more conditions.

=INDEX($C$2:$C$10,MATCH(1,($A$2:$A$10=D2)*($B$2:$B $10=D3),0))

the below are the two conditions
$A$2:$A$10=D2
$B$2:$B$10=D3

OK ... I got it ... :)

{=INDEX('Short Desc'!$E$2:$E$10000,MATCH(1,($B3='Short
Desc'!$B$2:$B$10000)*(LEFT($C3,SEARCH(" ",$C3)-1)='Short
Desc'!$D$2:$D$10000),0))&" "&$E3}
