I have two sheets in the same workbook. Master and New.

Masters data will be similar to that of New, EXCEPT, Master will have an
additional column of notes, cell H, that is not in sheet New.
I need to copy the notes column from sheet Master H to New H
But to find the proper row it has to match criteria in 3 cells.
Criteria are cells A B and C.

So I am thinking, use VLookup for A but how do I also include the AND IFs
for B and C.

There is no unique field, it has to match 3 fields.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

DAve,

Enter this into New, cell H2:

=INDEX(Master!H:H,SUMPRODUCT((Master!$A$1:$A$1000= New!A2)*(Master!$B$1:$B$1000=New!B2)*(Master!$C$1: $C$1000=New!C2)*ROW(Master!$A$1:$A$1000)))

And then copy down. Adjust the 1000 to be higher than your count of rows on Master...

HTH,

Bernie and Joel,

You two ROCK!

1: I will certainly look at INDEX for future uses, I have never used it
before.
2: Bernie, I will use yours ASAP to get this project going.
3: Joel, I will then add yours to it as I am also automating the input of
the new data from an outside source and yours will make it a one click deal.

I appreciate all of the time everyone gives to this site!

Regards,

Dave

You could add an additional (hidden?) column in Master that is a
concatenation of A, B, and C. Then you could do the VLOOKUP on that
column.
=CONCATENATE(A1,"|",B1,"|",C1)

OR do it in a VBA macro.
