During an index search my first occurence is always blank.
Is there a way to modify thise formula to skip the first occurence and check
for the second as the second occurence always contain the figure. Currently
there is no way to remove the first occurence.
=INDEX(Info!$A$1:$H$101, MATCH(B15,Info!$F$1:$F$101,),
MATCH("Total",Info!$A$1:$H$1,))

Is there a way to modify thise formula to skip the first occurence

The first instance in which axis? Is there more than 2 instances? Is the
table sorted so that all instances are grouped together?

Don,

Try

=INDEX(Info!$A$1:$H$101,(MATCH(B15,OFFSET(Info!$F$ 1:$F$101,MATCH(B15,$F$1:$F$101,FALSE),0)))+MATCH(B 15,$F$1:$F$101,FALSE),MATCH("Total",Info!$A$1:$H$1 ,))

The first instance I am looking for is in column F, and they are never
together, but the cells are not always consistent. The info may be in row 22
and 33 one time and in row 18 and 20 the next, but there is always 2
instances.

I tried this with adding the info! in the proper places as the data is on a
seperate page but couldn't get it to work, any ideas?

Doesn't seem to pick up anything, not even the first orrurence if I enter a
figure in it.

Don,

I left out a false, which wasn't needed for my sample data set.

=INDEX(Info!$A$1:$H$101,(MATCH(B15,OFFSET(Info!$F$ 1:$F$101,MATCH(B15,Info!$F$1:$F$101,FALSE),0),FALS E))+MATCH(B15,Info!$F$1:$F$101,FALSE),MATCH("Total ",Info!$A$1:$H$1,))

Hmmm...

Both of the formulas suggested by Bernie and myself do work.

Here's small sample that demonstrates this (with both formulas):

xLookupLast.xls

I put everything on the same sheet.

The last one from Bernie worked, which is good, can't access downloads at
work but will check it out when I get home, thanks.

Thanks, that worked fine. I posted from home but don't see where it shows up.
