LOOKUP Question [again!]
 

Apologies for another query, I have managed to get around the last one, so
thanks to all who helped.

I'm still struggling with the LOOKUP Function. I need to do a 'double'
vlookup so for example,

A1 = 01/01/06
B1 = 23
C1 = 250

how do i set the lookup so it returns C1 only if A1 and B1 are correct? I
have tried using two sets of vlookup at once, but without success.

Thanks again

You could try adding an IF/AND formula at the start:

=IF(AND(B1=23, C1=250),VLOOKUP(whatever, whatever, whatever, FALSE),
"")

This isn't working, i still need to set the range i think.

I can't figure out how to set the range and returned cell when looking for
two specific values. so it would only return a value ONLY when A1 and B1 were
correct and otherwise to return 0.

A1 is a date, could this be causing the problem? I have checked that the
sheet the lookup is referencing is in the same format etc.

LOOKUP Question [again!]
 

This doesn't work either, and I don't think this is really what I am looking
for. I don't think I have explained myself very well. so here goes:

for the sake of example i am working in cell b1 of sheet1! with column 'a'
populated with dates and c2:c11 containing the table relating to column 'b'
on sheet2!

the below details are on sheet2!

A1 B1 C1
01/01/2006 23 100
02/01/2006 24 200
03/01/2006 25 300

so i thought the formula might [but doesn't] look like this:

=vlookup(a1,sheet2!,a1:c3)+(vlookup(c2:c11,sheet2! b1:c3,2,false),0)

so it would only return sheet2! column C data if A was 01/01/06 and 23 was
in the array c2:c11 on sheet1!

Well, if you weren't explaining yourself very well before, I'm sorry to say
that you've got even worse!
As I read it (about 50 times so far!) this formula should do what you want:

=IF(ISNA(MATCH(VLOOKUP(A1,sheet2stuff,2,FALSE),she et1stuff,0)),"",VLOOKUP(A1,sheet2stuff,3,FALSE))

where sheet1stuff is the name of the range Sheet1!C2:C11 and sheet2stuff is
the name of the range Sheet!A1:C3
