how would i do a lookup to return a value if two conditions are met.
instead of =vlookup(a1,d1:h80,2,0) i would like a value to return if a1 and
b1 are matched?
thank you

Hi!

This all depends on how your lookup table is setup.

Need more detail.

It's not clear what you mean, do you want to lookup A1 and B1 in one column
of the lookup table? If so use

=VLOOKUP(A1&B1,D1:H80,2,0)

if not post back

I'm too am looking to return a value when 2 criterias are met, not a
combined set of words to make one. I want to look up a1 and then b1 in a
table where it will return xx.

Hi!

Assume your lookup table is in the range A5:C6.

A1 and B1 are the lookup values.

In C1 enter this array formula with the key combo of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER:

=INDEX(C5:C6,MATCH(1,(A5:A6=A1)*(B5:B6=B1),0))

If no match is found #N/A will be returned.

To keep #N/A from being displayed enter this formula, also
an array:

=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(1,(A5:A6=A1)*(B5:B6=B1),0)),"",I NDEX
(C5:C6,MATCH(1,(A5:A6=A1)*(B5:B6=B1),0)))
