Default Please Help! vlookup & match with multiple variables


Hi all,

I'm trying to develop a rating worksheet for an insurance agency. The
rating tables are broken down first by territory (group of counties)
and then the premium is shown depending upon the class (group of
specialties) and limits desired. So, for example, for Territory 1, I
have a rating table with classes 1 through 8 and different limit
selections across the top, complete with corresponding premiums, like
so:

A B C D
Class 200/600 500/1MM 1MM/3MM
1 2000 4000 6000
2 2500 4500 6500

I've constructed a user input sheet that allows them to select the
appropriate variables (county, limits, etc) from drop down boxes and
then I have a hidden worksheet converting these selections to usable
data from additional tables in the background, i.e.,

A B
Archer 1
Radiology 2
200/600 1

I can construct a vlookup/match formula to tell excel to match the
class shown in B3 with the limits shown in B4 but I can't figure out
how to make it first select the appropriate table depending upon the
county selected in B2. In other words, I need excel to say "this is
Archer county (B2) so go look at Range X rate table and then
vlookup/match according to class(b3) and limits(B4) to return the right
premium".

Any ideas?

Thanks so much :)

Kate
