Default Trying to match 1 value to multiple columns

I have a spreadsheet with several different worksheets. On Worksheet 1, I
have the following:
(Col A) Structure Number, (Col B) Opening Height 1, (Col C) Opening
Direction 1 (N, S, E, W), (Col D) Opening Height 2, (Col E) Opening Direction
2 (N, S, E, W), (Col F) Opening Height 3, (Col G) Opening Direction 2 (N, S,
E, W), (Col H) Opening Height 4, (Col I) Opening Direction 4 (N, S, E, W)
There are over 100 rows, 1 for each structure. Some structures have just 1
opening, and some have multiple openings.

On Worksheet 2, the user will enter:
(Col A) Structure Number and (Col B) Opening Direction. I want Column C to
search Worksheet 1 and give the Opening Height automatically.

For example, Worksheet 1 has:

(A) (B) (C ) (D) (E) (F) (G)
(row) STR # OPENING1 OPENING1 OPENING2 OPENING2 OPENING3 OPENING3
HGT DIR HGT DIR HGT DIR
1 95-01 2.400 NE 2.300 SE
2 95-02 3.050 SW
3 95-03 4.900 E 4.900 W
4 95-04 4.880 SW 4.880 E 5.730
NE

On Worksheet 2, when the user enters 95-01 in Col A and SE in Col B, I want
the program to automatically give me 2.300 in Col C. Is there a function (or
combination of functions) that lets me do this.
