A vlookup/index-match type problem
 

Hi all,

I hope someone can help me with this. I want to return a value from a table
which is based upon two criteria. I have a table like this:

A B C
Account No. Date Balance
12345 23-4-09 100
56847 18-5-09 50
12345 18-5-09 75
32654 30-6-09 125

I want to do something like =VLOOKUP((A2 and B2:B5=18-5-09),A2:C5,3,FALSE)
to return 75.

Thanks in advance and regards,

Andrew

Hello Andrew,

If E1 contains your Account no search value and D1 your Date search
value:
=INDEX(C2:C5,MATCH(D1&"|"&E1,A2:A5&"|"&B2:B5,0))

The "|" construct protects you against lookup values like
54321 and 2-4-09
vs.
5432 and 12-4-09

Bernd

Hi,

=INDEX(C1:C5,MATCH(1,(A1:A5=12345)*(B1:B5=DATE(200 9,5,18)),0))

In practice I'd use cell references for the lookup values

Forgot to mention:-

This is an array formula which must be entered by pressing CTRL+Shift+Enter
'and not just Enter. If you do it correctly then Excel will put curly brackets
'around the formula {}. You can't type these yourself. If you edit the formula
'you must enter it again with CTRL+Shift+Enter.

Try this

=INDEX(C2:C5,MATCH(D1&N(E1),A2:A5&B2:B5,0),0)

where D1 = 12345, E1 = 18/5/09

use Ctrl + shift + enter

Thanks very much for your help. Unfortunately I could not get any of your
solutions to work for. In the end I created a helper column which basically
took the square root of the account number and added the date to get a
unique identifier and then used this in a straightforward index/match
function.

Cheers anyway,

Andrew
