Default Seeking Improvement on excel function

Dear sir,
I have one question regarding an "index" formular together with "match". I
used to set the following excel function to pick the data from the database:
=INDEX("database",MATCH("column argument","column range",0),"target column
range").

One of key thing of this excel funation is "target column range", which only
allow to cover ONE column only.

My question: Is there any way to improve or change the above excel function
in order to make "target column range" can cover more column ranges. I have
also thought about Vlookup and lookup function, but failed.

Thanks for your advice,
Wilchong
