I have a work sheet (worksheet 1) that has three columns of data and I want
to match it against another worksheet (worksheet 2) that has those same three
values in one column - if there is a match then i want to return a value in
column J of worksheet 2.

Worksheet 1:

Column D = 00001
Column G = 00000123456
Column H= 000123

Column T = Want value from worksheet 2 column J if all three above match

Worksheet 2:

Column I = 0000100000123456000123
Column J = 98765

One way ..

In Sheet1,
In T2, normal ENTER:
=INDEX(Sheet2!$J$2:J100,MATCH(TRUE,INDEX(D2&G2&H2= Sheet2!$I$2:$I$100,),0))
Copy down

And if you need an error trap, use ISNA on the MATCH bit of it, indicatively
like this:
=IF(ISNA(MATCH(..)),"",INDEX(..))

aloha? hit the YES below

Getting an NA - but i think because my data isnt consistent (sometimes the
00001 is just a 1 in sheet 1 but a 000001 in sheet 2)

What if I just wanted to match column G to the mid of column I (this number
is always consistent)

Ah, you could tinker around with the earlier expression like this,
normal ENTER to confirm the formula will do (as before):
=INDEX(Sheet2!$J$2:J100,MATCH(TRUE,INDEX(G2=MID(Sh eet2!$I$2:$I$100,6,11),),0))

Worksheet 1:

Column H= 000123

Column T = Want value from worksheet 2 column J if all three above match

Worksheet 2:

Column I = 0000100000123456000123
Column J = 98765

Assuming that Sheet2!A2:E6 contains the source data, and Sheet1!A2
contains 'aaa', try the following...

B2:

=COUNTIF(Sheet2!A2:A6,A2)

C2, confirmed with CONTROL+SHIFT+ENTER, copied across and down:

=IF(ROWS(C$2:C2)<=$B$2,INDEX(Sheet2!B$2:B$6,SMALL( IF(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$6=$A$
2,ROW(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$6)-ROW(Sheet2!$A$2)+1),ROWS(C$2:C2))),"")

However, it would be more efficient to use a helper column...

B2:

=COUNTIF(Sheet2!A2:A6,A2)

C2, confirmed with CONTROL+SHIFT+ENTER, and copied down:

=IF(ROWS(C$2:C2)<=$B$2,SMALL(IF(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$6=$ A$2,ROW(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$
6)-ROW(Sheet2!$A$2)+1),ROWS(C$2:C2)),"")

D2, copied across and down:

=IF($C2<"",INDEX(Sheet2!B$2:B$6,$C2),"")
