I have a list which I need to search from. I have three search criteria, and wish to output a fourth item. For each combination of the search criteria, there will only be one matching result. I'm trying to use a series of search criteria (arranged in a table - with one row for each search instance, one column for each criterion) which is located on a different worksheet within the same workbook to the data table from which I need to extract the values. The first search returns the desired result, however the next row returns #NUM error. In order to replicate the formula on the second and subsequent rows I've used a straight forward copy/past - the formula appears to be an Array one still (preceded and suceeded by {} as appropriate). Do you have any suggestions which might help? Do you have any suggestions on what might be causing this? Hi Oscar,

However I stillhave a problem that do not fit on your examples. I have a table of 3 coloms (Security name, date, price) and I have to find the price a a security at a certain date in a table that contain many securities and prices for this securities for different dates. If I work with vlookup or Index-match I got only the first price for a certain securities. So I am not able to find the price of a securities that match both the name of the securities and the date. Could you advice if there is any way to overcome? Thank you for the example. However I stillhave a problem that do not fit on your examples.
