VLOOKUP Question
 

Hi,

I'm using VLOOKUP function to get some values from a range. The problem is
if source range has more than one record for the condition, VLOOKUP always
gets first occurance. Is there anyway to get second or third occurance of
lookup value.


Thanks in advance

VLOOKUP Question
 

If the functions in the freely downloadable file at
http://home.pacbell.net/beban are available to your workbook

=INDEX(VLookups(lookup_value,lookup_table,return_v alue_column),n,1)

will return the return value corresponding to the nth occurrence of the
lookup value.

Chip Pearson has a section on this Webpage on 'Arbitrary Lookups'
that details how to do this with formulas.
